about Reid

Hi, I’m Reid Callanan. I live on the coast of Maine and travel to the high desert of New Mexico for our SFW seasons. I am a husband, father, brother, son, co-worker, photographer, writer, and I inherited a green thumb from my grandmother, Isabel.

I am also the lead gardener at Santa Fe Workshops (aka “Founder”) — sowing seeds, cultivating ideas, growing the business by working alongside a team of really talented and dedicated people.

I am fortunate to have had only one job in my 45-year work career — being a part of the magic of workshops. I get to spend time in inspirational locales such as Santa Fe, San Miguel de Allende, and Havana and meet the most interesting folks. Building a creative community at SFW and helping people make connections through storytelling is what I have devoted my life to.
