2021 Overview. . .

Continuing from 2020, the Museum maintained part-time hours Tuesday through Friday, 1 p.m. to 5 p.m. along with reduced staffing and budget through the first half of 2021. After approval to refill vacant positions, the Museum expanded its hours and opened full-time on Saturday, June 12, 10 am to 6 pm daily. Alongside state health restrictions, much of the museum’s normal programming was on hold or severely modified in the first half of the year and offerings were slowly reintroduced as the year continued.

Exhibitions. . .

In 2021, owing to reduced visitors and a limited budget, exhibitions concentrated on New Mexico artists and in-house and local opportunities.
