As part of the Canyon Road Summerwalk, we will host a tea party with paintings and music in Olive Rush’s home and garden.  Olive was one of the first artists on the street when she bought her house in 1920, and her garden and home were a common gathering place as the creatives and their friends flocked to Canyon Road.   

Experience an Olive Rush style tea party in the garden and house.  Nibble cookies and drink punch.  Stroll through the tranquil garden where plein air botanical watercolors are being painted by Shelley Horton-Trippe. On the portal, see an art exhibit featuring paintings by the Santa Fe painting group Dames of the West — works by Louise Alger, Lynn Atkinson, Celia Hutton and Uma Jill Markus. Enjoy live music that complements the evening’s ambiance, and explore the historic home and studio of renowned painter Olive Rush.
