International Folk Art Market (IFAM) is a Santa Fe-based nonprofit that supports folk artists by connecting them with opportunities in the global marketplace. Its flagship program, the International Folk Art Market | Santa Fe, evolved from a grassroots, one-weekend event into a year‑round platform that broadens access to markets and professional development for artisans. IFAM 360 encompasses initiatives such as Passport to Folk Art Trips and Folk Art Connections Workshops, run in collaboration with master folk artists. The organization seeks to honor handmade traditions while enabling artisans to pursue entrepreneurship, and its work is linked to community benefits including access to clean drinking water, education for girls, and improved healthcare.
