Georgia O'Keeffe Museum, Art museum in Santa Fe, United States
The Georgia O'Keeffe Museum is an art museum in Santa Fe, United States, presenting paintings, drawings, and personal belongings of the American modernist artist. The collection focuses on her depictions of New Mexico landscapes, close-up flowers, and abstract forms created during her decades working in the Southwest.
Anne Windfohr Marion founded the museum, which opened in 1997 as the first museum in the United States dedicated solely to a woman artist. The institution acquired works from various collections and directly from the artist's estate after her death in 1986.
The museum features rotating exhibitions that connect O'Keeffe's artistic vision with contemporary art movements and modern American cultural expressions.
The museum sits in a Pueblo Revival Style building in downtown Santa Fe, within easy walking distance from the Plaza. The interior spaces spread across two floors and include galleries with natural light as well as a museum shop and research library for visitors.
The museum holds more than 3000 works by the artist, including early watercolors and experimental compositions from her New York period. Many of these pieces appear in rotating exhibitions and remain accessible to the public beyond the standard display areas.

Santa Fe contains a concentrated collection of historic sites and cultural institutions that reflect the layered history of New Mexico. The city combines Spanish colonial architecture, Native American heritage, and contemporary art across its museums, galleries, and religious buildings. The New Mexico History Museum and the Palace of the Governors document over four centuries of regional history, while San Miguel Chapel and the Cathedral Basilica of St. Francis of Assisi rank among the oldest continuously used church structures in the region. The museum landscape ranges from the Museum of International Folk Art, with its extensive collections of traditional crafts, to the Georgia O'Keeffe Museum dedicated to the American modernist. The Museum of Indian Arts and Culture and the Wheelwright Museum of the American Indian present the artistic traditions of Pueblo peoples and other indigenous groups of the Southwest. Canyon Road concentrates numerous galleries along a historic street, while venues like Meow Wolf Santa Fe and SITE Santa Fe focus on contemporary and experimental art forms. Outdoor recreation is available through the Santa Fe National Forest, Dale Ball Trails, and Atalaya Mountain Trail in the surrounding mountains.
