Sante Fe best City in New Mexico for Museums
Save

I have to say I went to Sante Fe again this past month and I loved it!

I would recommend this for all people who love art and they are so friendly too. I went to the Alb. Museum of Art for the 4th time since I moved to NM, I went this past weekend and is it me, or are they a bit uptight now? I really was surprised the past times I went it was fine. I am just happy I had a better experience in Sante Fe three weeks prior so I highly recommend Sante Fe for all who plan to come to NM :)

I'm glad you enjoy our museums here in Santa Fe.

There is a very important exhibit at the Albq Museum that may have caused increased security and stress.

We are fortunate to have so many diverse museums in both Albuquerque and Santa Fe. The International Museum of Folk Art (my personal favorite) in Santa Fe; and museums pertaining to ballooning, nuclear energy, and natural history in Albuquerque, are but a few examples. They all in one way or another compliment one another in providing visitors with both information, and entertainment.

??? This is the second post recently mentioning perceived problems with the staff at the Albuquerque Museum; but I too think much of the tightening of security comes from the addition in recent times of some really, first class exhibits. While I too at times have felt like I was being watched, on the other hand I've found the guards at the museum to be rather well versed in information if called upon.

If we would all try to take in a museum each month, it would take quite a while to visit them all. Let's not forget the Rattlesnake Museum in Old Town. Although many choose to forget it, LOL. Not for everyone's tastes, but what is?
