Due to heightened security measures across our nation, the International Folk Art Market is supplementing its security procedures by adding bag screenings to the entry process at the 2022 the International Folk Art Market | Santa Fe for all patrons, sponsors, volunteers, media and vendors attending or working the event.

The International Folk Art Market would like to remind its visitors that IFAM | Santa Fe takes place on state property, and as such, weapons of any kind are strictly prohibited. As this is a state property, dogs will not be allowed to enter Market, regardless of size or carrier.  All bags and purses are subject to inspection upon entry and re-entry. IFAA will reserve the right not to allow any bag, parcel, or other item to be brought into the Market.

As we implement this security enhancement, we are making every effort to ensure our entry process remains as efficient as possible. We appreciate your patience as we work to keep the lines friendly and efficient.

Thank you for keeping IFAM | Santa Fe a safe, comfortable, and enjoyable experience for all.

2022 IFAM is a cashless event. There will be one cashier assigned to every four booths. You will pay for each item and then carry it with you.

Most items at the Market are easily transported on the visitor shuttles. Feel free to take up more than one seat; they run constantly and there’s room for all!

If you end up purchasing something that you physically cannot get on a shuttle without great risk to you and/or the item, and you don’t want to ship it, we can help. Stop by the Art Valet booth on the upper level of the Market for more information.
