Taos is very much a community of artists and the Harwood Museum of Art is very representative of its past and present. The Harwood Museum was an art colony of sorts and today hosts a range of pieces from the well-known local artists, a host of photographs of how the city was once, and a collection of Hispanic artwork, including the famous Barela sculptures.

This is the gallery of the famous Native American R.C. Gorman and it continues to sell his work even after his death. Come here to buy both prints and originals of his uniquely expressive art, or just to browse.

Taos Pueblo was built over a thousand years ago, before Columbus, before the end of the Dark Ages, before the western world knew the American continents even existed. Taos has been continually inhabited for the past millennium and about 150 people live in the Pueblo community year-round. Taos Pueblo is open to visitors for tours, arts and traditional crafts.
