ROUGH MAGIC.

That’s what happens when you have extraordinary conversations in an epic setting. Like the magazine, the weekend will be unpredictable, alive and fearless. It just might change the way you see the world.

Lifted from the pages of Santa Fe Magazine, we’ve interviewed the poets, outlaws, artists, mystics, entrepreneurs, healers, builders, saints, sinners and lovers who give this city its singular character. Print has been one way of telling that story. With the Santa Fe Magazine Festival, we will bring it to life.

Some conversations may challenge you. All of them will leave you rapt, knowing you are part of something bigger. Join our inaugural festival.

THE VENUE

PHOTO ST. JOHN’S COLLEGE

Set in the foothills of the Sangre de Cristo Mountains, St. John’s College gives the festival a setting that feels both intimate and expansive. This historic Santa Fe campus was shaped by the influence of architect John Gaw Meem and folk artist Alexander Girard. Known for its Great Books curriculum and small, discussion-based classes, St. John’s is a place shaped by enduring questions — about knowledge, human nature, character and the life of the soul — making it an especially fitting setting for a weekend of conversation, ideas and an immersive cultural atmosphere that unfolds across the grounds.
