Mano y Mente Museum, NOW OPEN!


MANO Y MENTE MUSEUM
220 Granado Street
TULAROSA, NM 88352

The Mano y Mente Museum, located in historic downtown Tularosa, NM, is now open! Admission is free and the museum is open to the public. The current museum hours are 12-6pm, Wednesday through Saturday.

The Mano y Mente Museum displays artworks donated by most past Mano y Mente artists. Many pieces in the collection were influenced by the stunning local scenery and the artists’ experiences in the region, and all were created in southern New Mexico. The Mano y Mente program has hosted artists of diverse artistic styles and techniques. Therefore, this museum exhibits realist, impressionist, expressionist, surrealist, and abstract pieces created with many different art mediums. The museum currently exhibits artworks from 6 Mano y Mente sessions, and will continue to grow in size as the program continues.

Each museum piece is accompanied by information about each artist as well as information about the region or Tularosa feature that influenced the work of art. The museum therefore fosters education both about the arts and the Tularosa Basin. Feel free to forward this email and encourage other art enthusiasts to visit the Mano y Mente Museum!

Otherworldly landscapes ... Spring 2010


The spring 2010 session has arrived and thus far artistic inspiration has come from White Sands National Monument, Carlsbad Caverns, and Dog Canyon ... all three of which make for "otherworldly" landscape experiences. Upcoming landscape painting regions will included Three Rivers, Petroglyphs, and the Volcano badlands.
