One of the biggest weekends in Santa Fe is only days away.

As many as 100,000 people will descend upon downtown Santa Fe and the surrounding area for Indian Market weekend, a three-day celebration of Native art and culture that has become a staple of the city’s summer scene and an increasingly popular draw.

The Southwestern Association for Indian Arts is celebrating the 101st anniversary of the market and expecting another year of growth, said executive director Jamie Schulze. More than 1,400 artists applied to be part of the event and 1,000 were chosen from more than 200 tribes, she noted.
