About Us
Traditionally thought of as a summer destination for music, opera, and visual arts, Santa Fe, New Mexico is also home to a world-class performing arts and culture scene throughout the winter months. The Art+Sol Festival is a landmark collaborative effort celebrating this rich artistic tradition in our beloved city. Over nine days, Festival audiences will experience symphony, song, chamber music, theater, chorus, and jazz against the beautiful backdrop of the Sangre de Cristo Mountains. Performances will take place in landmark venues and encourage visitors off the beaten path. Art + Sol Festival will also highlight Santa Fe’s museums, galleries, hotels, and restaurants – everything that makes this city a year-round destination. This city-wide festival gives locals and visitors a chance to celebrate the vibrancy and culture of Santa Fe. By combining resources and marketing efforts, all partners will promote Santa Fe as a winter arts destination and encourage audiences to visit again and again. The festival idea was conceived by Andréa Cassutt (Santa Fe Pro Musica), Amy Iwano (Performance Santa Fe), and Emma Scherer (The Santa Fe Symphony Orchestra & Chorus), each at the beginning of their tenures as executive director of their respective organizations. The three leaders sought a way to highlight and attract more audiences to their year-round programming as well as to usher in a new era of collaboration across Santa Fe’s cultural landscape.Our Mission
The Art + Sol Festival is a landmark winter event in Santa Fe, encouraging locals and visitors alike to enjoy world-class artistic experiences during an otherwise quiet season for the City Different. By combining the efforts of more than a dozen organizations, Art + Sol will promote arts, culture, and business, enticing visitors to Santa Fe and new audiences to arts organizations, restaurants, hotels, and businesses. The Art + Sol Festival is a citywide collaboration that reinforces Santa Fe’s reputation as a cultural tourist destination.The Art + Sol Festival is a brilliant collaboration bringing together dozens of our outstanding cultural organizations in a fresh new winter arts program. This dazzling blend of symphony, song, dance, comedy, theater and more promises to deliver a 9-day, 10-performance celebration of Santa Fe, our vibrant community and our unmatched hospitality as a destination for cultural tourists. I’m enormously grateful to the team that came together to create this exciting new event and salute them in their debut year!
The inaugural Art + Sol winter arts festival is our invitation to regional and national visitors alike to know that in this ‘city different’ the performing arts, galleries, museums, and Santa Fe community are a fabulous destination not only in the summer, but in the winter too. The three of us are excited to share our vision of collaborative performing and visual arts, and the treasure of the Santa Fe community with you.
I am so pleased to see our performing arts organizations come together to create a new festival at a time outside of the peak summer tourism season. This will provide a great opportunity for our residents and visitors to enjoy some outstanding offerings at a time when restaurants and hotels are not as busy and Santa Fe is easy to enjoy.
In most places, watching a community of artists band together to create something astonishing is the stuff of fantasy. In Santa Fe, it’s reality. The Art+Sol festival will fuse together the passions of Santa Fe’s people to create an extraordinary event in an even more extraordinary place. The magnificence of so much talent in one place will eclipse most expectations of what a winter festival should be, with a vision of what a winter festival can be.
