Georgia O’Keeffe Sites
Georgia O’Keeffe was one of the most significant artists of the 20th century. Her artwork includes imagery that expresses what she
called “the wideness and wonder of the world as I live in it.”
Ghost Ranch offers another option for those interested in seeing another home belonging to Georgia O’Keefe. She lived for many years at the Ghost Ranch amongst the multi-hued cliffs and canyons that often inspired her art. Now a living museum, Ghost Ranch offers the option to explore and look for fossils, learn about the early history and pre-history of the Rio Chama Valley, take a trail ride, canoe or kayak on Abiquiu Lake, or experience a view of the dramatic rocky vistas. The Ghost Ranch Visitor Center is about 30 minutes from The Timbers and is the closest option of the O’Keeffe sites.
The home and studio of Georgia O’Keeffe is one of the most magnificent artistic sites in the southwest. The buildings and surrounding areas inspired many of O’Keeffe’s best-known paintings. The home is about an hour’s drive from The Timbers. Reservations are required in advance.
The Georgia O’Keeffe Museum opened to the public in July 1997, eleven years after her death. The museum houses more than 3,000 works includes 1,149 O’Keeffe paintings, drawings, and sculptures that date from 1901 to 1984. The museum is in downtown Santa Fe, about a 90 minute drive from The Timbers.
