LOCATION & TRANSPORTATION OPTIONS SFAI is located in midtown Santa Fe at 1600 St. Michael’s Drive (Building #31), just east of Cerrillos Road, on the Midtown Campus (formerly the Santa Fe University of Art and Design). The best way to get to our building (#31) is via the main entrance to the former SFUAD campus on the south side of St. Michael’s Drive. Pass the welcome booth and at the T-intersection, turn right onto Alumni Drive. As you pass New Mexico Bank and Trust (on your right), the road will veer to the left (southwest). Continue straight (heading southwest) past Greer Garson Theater (Building #1), then a large parking lot, and finally the Visual Arts Center (Building #30). SFAI is the next building (#31) on your left, it has three pyramid shaped towers. If you pass the traffic circle you have gone too far. Park between the Visual Arts Center and SFAI and call (505) 303-0732 to let staff know you have arrived for check-in. Staff will meet you outside and show you to your room.

The closest stops are: Lamy Station 152 Old Lamy Trail Lamy, NM 87540 Alvarado Transportation Center https://www.visitalbuquerque.org/listing/alvarado-transportation-center/3559/ 320 1st Street SW Albuquerque, NM 87102-3405 NOTE: Although just 18.5 miles southeast of Santa Fe, travel from the Lamy Station can be challenging because it is an extremely small and rural town without a rental car agency, taxi, or bus system, not to mention that wifi is not available at the train station and cell service can be spotty. Really, the only public transit option from Lamy Station to Santa Fe is to book a ride with RoadRunneR.
