Abiquiú contains Georgia O'Keeffe's former home that is now a museum.
O'Keeffe lived and worked in the Abiquiú area of northern New Mexico. Her Abiquiú home, adapted from a historic adobe compound, included the famous black door that became one of her repeated visual subjects.
The Georgia O'Keeffe Museum preserves and interprets the artist's life, work, and New Mexico surroundings. The museum's main galleries are in Santa Fe, while the Abiquiú residence offers a more direct view of the domestic and architectural environment in which O'Keeffe worked.
Abiquiú is distinct from Ghost Ranch, another nearby place strongly associated with O'Keeffe. She owned and used a house at Ghost Ranch as well, but the preserved historic home commonly described as her Abiquiú home is in Abiquiú itself.
