Tips from the community
Designed by Virginia Dwan, Charles Ross, and Laban Wingert in 1996, the Dwan Light Sanctuary is a “refuge from the pace, conflicts, and anxieties of daily living.” Open daily from sunrise to sunset, visitors can experience light seeping into the clean, white room, reflecting off the walls and creating twinkling light ribbons and magic rainbow prisms.

two months in new mexico
leah (Leah Fishman) I'm headed to New Mexico in December and am planning a totally solo, COVID-safe getaway with my pup Fiona. We snagged a casita between Santa Fe & Taos and plan to hit all the best hikes within reach. Food stops are for take-out only, national parks will be visited on off-days, and museums will have to be saved for the next trip (RIP Meow Wolf).
