ABOUT ST. FRANCIS AUDITORIUM
As a center for Santa Fe’s performing arts and cultural activities for nearly a century, the St. Francis Auditorium at the New Mexico Museum of Art hosts a new installation by Maja Ruznic as part of the 12th SITE SANTA FE International. Ruznic is creating new large-scale paintings that intervene in the Auditorium’s murals, where the life of St. Francis of Assisi (the patron saint of Santa Fe) is currently depicted in six parts.
Led by fifth-generation art dealer Jed Foutz, the downtown gallery Shiprock Santa Fe specializes in vintage and antique Indigenous art—primarily Diné and that of other tribes of the Southwest—from the nineteenth century to the present. Photography, painting, and sculpture by living artists are shown alongside jewelry, ceramics, and basketry from past generations. Located on the second story of a nineteenth-century building on Santa Fe’s central Plaza, Shiprock is a multi-room exhibition space for intimate displays of art that spans eras and geographies.

ABOUT SANTA FE VILLAGE
Longtime residents and visitors alike will recognize the distinctive facade of Santa Fe Village. This over 100-year-old adobe shopping center recalls the region’s historic trading posts. In the twentieth century, many remaining trading posts were converted into shopping centers and, conversely, modern shopping centers were designed to evoke those remote businesses, romanticized in popular images of the Southwest. Santa Fe Village’s storied Unit 13 housed the shop of silversmith RM Campbell (known as Ol’ Bear) for twenty-seven years. The interior features exposed bricks, wooden floors, and the iconic New Mexican vigas (or log beams).

ABOUT DOODLET’S
Doodlet’s is a beloved toy store in the heart of downtown Santa Fe—a local institution that has delighted children of all ages for seventy years. Founded in 1955 by Theo Raven (Theodora Ruthling) and her mother, Helene Maurer Ruthling, who had the nickname Doodles. Theo’s diminutive nickname, Doodlet—bestowed by local artist Will Shuster—seemed an apt and memorable choice for the shop. There, one can find nostalgic toys, tiny animals, candy, books, and cards, alongside keepsakes, milagros (metal votive offerings), sugar skulls, and a wide array of miniatures. As of 2025, the shop is run once again by a mother-daughter team of Santa Fe locals.
Located just four blocks off the central plaza in downtown Santa Fe, Las Palomas is a unique inn that showcases the distinctive architecture of the region. Built in 1890, the casitas (or intimate, single-family homes) were transformed into the present-day boutique hotel in the 1990s by acclaimed opera singer Neil Rosenshein. Once Within a Time utilizes a building on the side of the sprawling property that faces Water Street, a short distance from Las Palomas’s main entrance on San Francisco Street.
