The history of Taos is alive.; the Taos area is a mix of Pueblo Indian, Spanish, and Anglo peoples. The Taos Pueblo people have been here for more than a thousand years; the Spanish people for more than 400 years; and, the Anglo people for only a couple hundred years. All have traditions and festivals dating back these many years. You will feel the rich texture of so many years of tradition interlaced with the present time - in all you do here.

Art is an essential element of Taos, New Mexico and is found in everything residents and tourists do. Taos is surrounded by towering mountains, vast plains, infinite blue skies. And the light -- the way the light shines during the day at this elevation and within these vast natural spaces creates a beautiful golden glow. Artists have been awe-struck by the 'quality of light' throughout the ages here in Taos.
