The Village of Los Ranchos de Albuquerque is just seven miles from downtown Albuquerque, but millions of miles away in terms of attitude. Tiny, with just one main street, Los Ranchos relies heavily—and with good reason—on its rural charm and its surprisingly rich arts scene. This November, the many resident artists will open their studios and homes to the public, giving visitors to Los Ranchos the chance to get up close and personal with their lives and their work. Local vineyard The Anderson Winery will hold a small tour preview gallery to display samples of the work that can be found throughout the village, so stop by for a glass of wine and a view of things to come.

Take a break from the city and head on down to Los Ranchos—the weather will be fall at its best, and you just might find that picture perfect piece you were looking for to complete your decor.
