We assume most people will be driving. If flying\, the nearest airport is the cute\, tiny one on the south side of Santa Fe (SAF)\, albeit with very limited service; otherwise it’s Albuquerque’s (ABQ)\, an hour’s extra drive. If you fly in to ABQ and don’t rent a car\, it’s dicey: the one shuttle service to Santa Fe stopped operations in November. There is a train from downtown Albuquerque\, the Rail Runner\, but only a half dozen or so run every day\, and it doesn’t stop at the airport. We’ll do our best to arrange to pick you up in Santa Fe or ABQ if you let us know your itinerary.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/4″][vc_single_image image=”20144″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center” css=”” qode_css_animation=””][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row css_animation=”” row_type=”row” use_row_as_full_screen_section=”no” type=”full_width” angled_section=”no” text_align=”left” background_image_as_pattern=”without_pattern”][vc_column][vc_empty_space][vc_separator type=”normal”][vc_empty_space][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row css_animation=”” row_type=”row” use_row_as_full_screen_section=”no” type=”full_width” angled_section=”no” text_align=”left” background_image_as_pattern=”without_pattern”][vc_column][vc_column_text css=””] \nRegistration:\n[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_column_text css=””]Status: Waiting List[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1765556208335{margin-bottom: 35px !important;border-top-width: 0px !important;border-right-width: 0px !important;border-bottom-width: 0px !important;border-left-width: 4px !important;padding-top: 10px !important;padding-right: 20px !important;padding-bottom: 10px !important;padding-left: 20px !important;background-color: #7B101000 !important;border-left-style: solid !important;border-right-style: solid !important;border-top-style: solid !important;border-bottom-style: solid !important;border-color: #7B1010 !important;}” el_class=”border-left-section”]Workshop registration is now at full capacity.
