Thank you for posting the pic!  Was just speaking with a fellow antique dealer and she has gone often to the Indian Market.

We had several dealers from Denver & San Francisco spend almost the whole month of August there.  Have heard the Ethnographic show has closed down that was a huge show.

@Kachina624  - Love Santa Fe!  My DD lived there for a little over a year and I would visit her often.

@rockygems123.  What ethnographic show?  I don't know anything about such a thing.

I have never been to New Mexico, but it is a place that I  would like to visit.

I would love to go to the Santa Fe Indian Market and also see the hot air balloons.

Maybe someday.  It's on my bucket list.

@Kachina624    Thanks for all the postings and pics from New Mexico.  I really enjoy your posts.  You live in a beautiful part of the country.

Thank you @Carmie .  It's fun living here with so much to see and do.  Come on down, balloon fiesta in October.

@Kachina624The picture brings back so many memories. Back in 1965 I was TDY for a weekend retreat up in those beautiful mountains.  Visited the market and bought a beautiful Indian basket with handles for my mother and a turquoise (you would love it and still have it) jewelry pouch.  It was not the official August market for I was there in the month of June.  Was just looking at my pictures of long ago last night.  It looks like it has not changed at all since then. What a wonderful part of our country!!

@Pezzie.  No, I have mobility issues and can do the walking or standing.

Looks like it's still going on, found this online. My dealer friends from SF would drive to Santa Fe to sell their Native American items at the Ethnographic  show which was historically a week before the Indian Market.  They made a bundle.
