✨ For some intangible and enchanting reason, nothing quite expresses the style and culture of Taos like the authentic Northern New Mexican jewelry found in and around her streets.

With nearly twenty unique galleries and shops throughout Taos, it’s easy to see our jewelers and artists are passionate about representing the vibrancy and heritage of Taos through their necklaces, bolos, rings, earrings and belts. 📿

Using turquoise and sterling silver, often incorporating symbols like mountains, animals and the sun, hails our Native American roots, particularly the nearby tribes of the Taos and Navajo Pueblos. 🩶

And the delicate filigree work showcasing intricate designs in gold and silver is a style brought to New Mexico by Spanish settlers, and remains a hallmark of jewelry tradition in Taos. 🪙

This month, for International Creativity Month, we are celebrating these artists, and this artform, by inviting you to support their local shops and galleries, as well as the classes and workshops on offer.

Come create with us, this month, in Taos. 🎨

⛰️ There is so much to Taos that is “off the beaten track” and “hidden in plain sight.” And as you walk her snow-laden streets this winter season, we sincerely hope you catch a glimpse of the rich winter-themed heritage that makes our Northern New Mexican town so fascinating this time of year.

For instance, many of the classic winter landscapes depicted in art by The Taos Society of Artists stands as historical evidence that the Taos Winterscape has inspired our artists for decades.
And the Taos Pueblo and Picuris Pueblo are a living testament to the rich traditions and history that makes this town so special. 🖼️

With all this in mind, it’s no doubt Taos is ranked one of the most favored destinations in the winter months. We’re more than just a pretty face, there’s depth all around. ☺️

And few do this better than those working in the medium of clay and ceramics. 🍽️

This month, for International Creativity Month, we invite you to dive into the world of our potters and sculptures, by supporting our local pottery galleries, and taking a class or two with us. 🖼️

Experience the life of a potter with one of our Clay Pottery Workshops and Classes. Each class offers multi-day workshops for students at all levels teaching the tactile and powerful art of construction, glazing and firing techniques, many of which are taught by notable regional and nationally recognized artists. 🎨
