Thank you to arts writer Logan Royce Beitmen for his thoughtful review of The Other Route 66: 100 Years of People, Identity, and Place in Albuquerque.

The Other Route 66 is on view through January 3, 2027 with lots of public programming delving into the many stories surfaced in the exhibition.

Established by the United Nations General Assembly in 1972 and first celebrated on June 5, 1973, World Environment Day seeks to raise awareness, inspire change, and drive global action for a healthier, more sustainable planet.

In New Mexico, the Rio Grande faces constant threats from overallocation, climate change, and drought. Along the length of the Rio, communities rely on the river and its tributaries as an important cultural resource and for drinking water, agriculture, recreation, habitat for wildlife, and serves as the critical backbone of local economies.

We all owe a debt of gratitude for the dozens of organizations in New Mexico that have long advocated for and worked to protect and maintain the state’s exceptional beauty and critical resources.
