We enjoyed El Museo Cultural so much that we will be holding Recycle Santa Fe there in 2007 as well. El Museo, located in Santa Fe's Railyard in the Guadalupe District, will host many of Santa Fe's major conferences, expos and art markets in 2006 & 2007. HISTORY OF RECYCLE SANTA FE The Recycled Art Market was the core idea for this whole festival.
Conceived at a local craft show on a lazy Sunday afternoon in 1999 by
Mark Dabelstein and Joe Buffalo Nickels, they both
wanted a specialized market to showcase recycled art. A
serendipitous connection with Nancy Judd at Santa Fe Beautiful propelled
the idea to our first efforts that November.
