Which museum in Santa Fe became the first museum dedicated to a woman artist?

The Georgia O'Keeffe Museum in Santa Fe became the first museum dedicated to a woman artist.

The museum opened in 1997, eleven years after O'Keeffe's death. It was created to preserve, study, and present her art and related archival materials. Its collection includes paintings, drawings, photographs, and objects connected with her life and working methods.

The museum is located in Santa Fe, a city with a long association with O'Keeffe and modern art in the American Southwest. Its programs place her work in wider contexts, including American modernism, regional landscape, and the history of women artists.

The institution is distinct from the Georgia O'Keeffe Home and Studio in Abiquiu. The home is a historic property, while the Santa Fe museum is a collecting and exhibition institution. Both are managed within the broader preservation of O'Keeffe's legacy.
