Downtown is looking great, we miss you and we hope to open safely, soon. Unfortunately, we have cancelled the Jazz Jam at The Heart Space, Riverfest Fine Art Show, Downtown Art Walk and Summer Youth Art Camps, along with the Downtown Artisan Makers Market.
The Northwest New Mexico Arts Council would like to announce that due to ongoing developments from the Governor’s office with restrictions, due to COVID, over public gatherings still being deemed “unsafe and prohibited” the Downtown Makers Market is tentatively postponed until further notice. We are excited to continue this fun downtown tradition, but wish to ensure the safety of our vendors and patrons.
Please email us if you are interested in participating when we are able to return, and we will ensure you contacted – the arts council would like to invite you share your website and/or sales information to “spotlight” makers and artists on our social media.
Please visit our social media FACEBOOK page for updates and COVID grant opportunities to support local artists. If we can be of any help, please contact us.
