The Georgia O'Keeffe Museum opened in Santa Fe, New Mexico, in 1997.
The museum was established to preserve and present O'Keeffe's art, life, and legacy. It opened to the public on July 17, 1997, more than a decade after the artist's death. O'Keeffe had lived in New Mexico for many years and died in Santa Fe in 1986, making the city a natural center for an institution devoted to her work.
Its collection includes paintings, drawings, and sculpture by O'Keeffe, together with archival material documenting her career. The museum also studies the artists, places, and ideas connected with her life. In addition to the main museum, the organization operates the Georgia O'Keeffe Home and Studio in Abiquiú as a historic property.
Santa Fe is sometimes confused with Taos because both are major New Mexico art destinations. O'Keeffe's museum, however, is in Santa Fe, while her Abiquiú home lies north of the city.
