Progressive Arts Fair will be held on September 18, Santa Fe Railyard Plaza, from 10 AM to 6 PM

Expanding on the traditional concept of an art market by inviting 35 artists to use a 10 by 10 foot booth for any purpose that they envision. Many artists will be selling their work, and others are setting up installations, showcasing multimedia or performance art pieces, or creating interactive art. The event will feature all different types of artists, working in different mediums, and at all different points in their careers. We’ll be working with local publications, gallery owners, and curators to maximize the exposure for participants.

The fair is part of The Santa Fe Reporter AHA Festival, which includes live music and other performance. We intend for this to be a multi-disciplinary celebration of New Mexico’s most exciting artistic talent. Everything will be all ages.

Artists include ArtOfficial, Brandon Behning, Raven Chacon and Candice Hopkins, Sydney Cooper, Sean DiIanni, Luke Dorman, Susannah Dourmashkin and Kaelie Barnard, Jordan Glazer and Max Fields, Sam Haozous and Melissa Dominguez, Chace Haynes, Jenni Higginbotham, Roxane Hopper, Kaleidospoke, Caity Kennedy, Matt King, Emilee Lord, Manners, Andrew Merritt, Jonathan Morse, Ashley Rowe, Donna Ruff, The Thistle, SCUBA, Alysha Layla Shaw, Nora Jane Slade, Team Everything, Tuscany Wenger, Niomi and Akira Watts, Gwen Wells, and Todd Ryan White.

Railyard Art Project

Santa Fe Railyard

The Railyard Art Project collaborates with artists and inspired, creative projects crafted by individuals and organized groups to temporarily place installations, artworks and other innovative objects, ideas and contextually appropriate endeavors in Santa Fe, New Mexico’s Railyard Park + Plaza.

The Railyard Park + Plaza is an urban art environment and is itself a work of public art. Artists, organizations and collaborative, creative teams are encouraged to respond to this intentionally designed landscape with temporary art and performance projects that emphasize engagement, participation and education. Collaborations across disciplines—artists, designers, scientists, historians, sociologists, etc—are of particular interest. Additionally, projects that respond to specific locations in the Park + Plaza through community and historic context are encouraged. However, there are no conceptual or collaborative factors limiting the scope of proposals for projects: the Railyard Art Committee is open to any and all proposals that fit the usage policies of the Railyard Park & Plaza and comply with the terms and conditions of the Railyard Park + Plaza’s multiple public and private stakeholders.

Potential projects for location in the Park + Plaza are evaluated on an ongoing basis by the Railyard Art Committee, a volunteer group of dedicated community members that works with the Railyard Stewards to help locate exceptional artworks and projects in this vital center of public life in Santa Fe. Projects are currently being accepted on the condition that applicants, or at least one member of the applicant team is a current New Mexico resident.
