Food & Dining

We’ll be providing all meals and snacks except for field trip days for residencies and retreats, while some workshops include all meals. See details in the descriptions for each event. Artists can explore the incredible food scene here in Santa Fe on field trip days, when artists are on their own for lunch and dinner. We’ll give you a guidebook of places we love and recommend.

Our new chef in 2025 will be serving breakfast, lunch, dinner and snacks buffet and family style, with an emphasis on local, in-season and vegetarian meals and snacks. We’ll always offer vegan and gluten-free selections, and organic whenever possible.

For those with food sensitivities, restrictions or allergies, please email us at least 14 days prior to your arrival to let us know. We will do our best to accommodate but cannot guarantee it.
