Made In New Mexico, "Where Authenticity Matters"
Before we opened MadeInNewMexico.com, we sold only items made in New Mexico from our famous "Made In New Mexico" store in Taos. When you visit Taos, your trip won't be
complete without a visit to the "Official Home of Real New Mexico Products."
The Made in New Mexico! store is located in a slightly-haunted adobe building on the historic Taos Plaza. It just wouldn't be right to sell cheaply-made or imported
goods from such a historic location, so everything in the store is made
exclusively by the artisans, craftspeople, and micro-businesses of New
Mexico.

Visit Taos, "The Original
Art Town"
If you like art, history, culture, amazing
mountain and high-desert scenery, river rafting, skiing and other outdoor
activities, consider Taos (rhymes with "house") for your next
vacation...there's simply no place like it.
Artists have been moving here, creating
here, and selling their works for over 100 years. Art lovers from all over
the world come to Taos to buy from our 65+ art galleries. The amazingly varied and colorful sky
and our sacred Taos
Mountain continue to inspire thousands of artists, photographers and
other visitors every year.
Before it was an art town, Taos was the
place where American Indians, and later Europeans, came to trade food, furs
and other goods. The
Taos
Pueblo Indians established their
impressive pueblo here around 1,000 A.D., and it still stands as one of
America's oldest buildings.. Europeans settled in the area in the late
1600s, and the uniquely American trapper, scout, and guide
Kit Carson
lived here in the 19th century and is buried here.
Taos remains a fascinating blend of three
distinct cultures: Anglo, Spanish and Indian. Today, Taos County is home to
about 30,000 year-round residents, while the town of Taos itself has a
population of about 5,000.
