Taos Hotel guests find the Gallery at Touchstone unique.  It houses the work of Bren Price, one of the youngest members of the Taos Masters, a Taos Icon, and co-founder of the Taos Artists Organization. Touchstone has been called a living watercolor, where the bright light streaming through the skylights and conservatory windows animate the artist’s work.  Our boutique hotel is a preferred destination for the astute traveler seeking a true Taos experience. Pictured above are works by Bren Price, Bali Garuda and Catching the Sun.

Close to Everything Taos, the grounds at Touchstone are available for you to roam. 

Touchstone is situated on two acres in town, with sweeping views of Taos Mountain, bordering Taos Pueblo lands and the Rio Pueblo – medicine land that acts as a catalyst for self renewal.  With mature trees, gardens, and fountains, Touchstone is an oasis in the desert; ours is the first property outside the Pueblo to which waters from sacred Blue Lake flow.  We have facilities for weddings, retreats, reunions, and workshops of all kinds – some of the workshops our 501c-3 has sponsored are:  painting, printmaking, silver clay, Santos making, masks, scrap-booking, yoga, meditation, computer, aria, colloidal silver generator construction, and writing workshops.
