As a special treat\, Doug Magnus will speak about the history of the Cerrillos turquoise mines\, including the fabled Tiffany Mine that produced gems exclusively for Tiffany & Co.\, each stone’s color a perfect match of the classic Tiffany’s box. \nThe event runs from 9 am to 5 pm June 18-20 in the Palace Courtyard. Entry is free via the Blue Gate south of the New Mexico History Museum’s main entrance at 113 Lincoln Avenue. \nGuest speakers: \nGarrick Beck on natural stones: 11 AM Saturday. \nBeck’s Santa Fe company\, Natural Stones\, specializes in genuine\, natural stones that are not dyed\, synthesized\, "stabilized" or "enhanced." \nDoug Magnus on the Cerrillos turquoise mines: 2 PM Saturday. \nMagnus\, a Santa Fe jewelry designer whose Santa Fe 400th line is available in the Spiegelberg Shop at the New Mexico History Museum\, has owned the six turquoise mines in Cerrillos\, N.M.\, since 1988. \nSandy Craig on the opals of Ethiopia: 1 PM Sunday. \nCraig’s Orca Gems and Opals of Littleton\, Colo.\, carries specimens\, rough\, rubs and cut stones from Nevada\, Mexico\, Honduras\, Ethiopia\, Lightning Ridge\, Lambina\, Mintabi\, Yowah and Koroit. \nThe Cerrillos mining district has seen activity since 600 A.D.\, first for Native peoples\, then Spanish colonists and\, around the turn of the last century\, Anglo miners\, including the American Turquoise Company. \nIn 1889\, George F. Kunz\, Tiffany & Co.’s renowned gemologist\, won an award in Paris for a collection that contained a sample of New Mexico turquoise. In 1892\, Kunz announced that certain colors of turquoise had come to be considered “gem quality” – namely\, the Tiffany Blue color. According to a New York newspaper: That is a turquoise far and away the finest in America\, and it came from these new mines in New Mexico. It is worth $4\,000. … (I)t is probable that gems to the value of $200\,000 a year may be obtained from this mine. Kunz recognized the possibilities of further branding the Tiffany Blue color by maintaining almost-exclusive rights to the turquoise he had made suddenly valuable. \nIn that same year\, James P. McNulty came to Cerrillos to mine turquoise\, eventually landing with the American Turquoise Company\, which owned the claims to a number of mines. The ATC sold almost all of its turquoise directly to Tiffany & Co.\, where designer Pauling Farnham (regarded by some as “Tiffany’s lost genius”) crafted some $2 million worth of it into jewelry. \nToday\, the mines are likely played out\, said Magnus\, who was able to obtain several specimens of the raw ore “that had been hoarded for 80 or 100 years by the man that did all the mining for the American Turquoise Company.”  \nDespite the difficulty of obtaining specimens\, Magnus said\, turquoise seems to be enjoying new verve. “I’ve been working with it since 1972\, and I’ve watched it become the single most popular semi-precious gemstone in the realm of semi-precious gemstones. And that’s worldwide.” \nThe Gem & Mineral Show\, in conjunction with the Palace of the Governors Native American Artisan Program\, allows gem and mineral dealers and Native American artisans to tell their unique stories about the historical relationships that have existed between Native silversmiths and jewelers\, miners\, and gem and mineral traders.  \nExhibitors will include: Garrick Beck; Orca Gems and Opals; Roadrunner Mining and Minerals; Bright Star Gemstones; and Will Steerman. \nCome to look\, come to touch\, come to buy\, but most important\, come to learn more about the historic interplay between miners\, mineral traders and the artisans who bring life to these fruits of the earth. \nFor info or booth rentals contact David Rogers at 505-476-5157\, or David.rogers@state.nm.us \n  URL:https://test-dca-mc.nmdca.net/dca-event/721-palace-gem-and-mineral-show-learn-about-the-tiffany-turquoise-mines/ LOCATION:New Mexico History Museum\, 113 Lincoln Avenue\, Santa Fe\, NM\, 87501\, United States CATEGORIES:Event ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://test-dca-mc.nmdca.net/wp-content/uploads/2023/05/721_thumb.jpg ORGANIZER;CN="Marlon Magdalena":MAILTO:marlon.magdalena GEO:35.6883465;-105.9381345 X-APPLE-STRUCTURED-LOCATION;VALUE=URI;X-ADDRESS=New Mexico History Museum 113 Lincoln Avenue Santa Fe NM 87501 United States;X-APPLE-RADIUS=500;X-TITLE=113 Lincoln Avenue:geo:-105.9381345,35.6883465 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Denver:20100617T120000 DTEND;TZID=America/Denver:20100619T170000 DTSTAMP:20230614T175410Z CREATED:20110312T033408Z LAST-MODIFIED:20230614T175410Z UID:10001887-1276776000-1276966800@test-dca-mc.nmdca.net SUMMARY:The Long Run IV Motorcycle Ride 3 -day Event DESCRIPTION:Motorcycle enthusiasts throughout the Navajo Nation gather in Kirkland\, N.M. to ride together to the Bosque Redondo Memorial to commemorate the “Long Walk.”  Long Run IV will revisit the miles walked by the Navajo people who were rounded up by the U.S. Army\, under the command of Colonel Christopher “Kit” Carson\, and forced to walk hundreds of miles to the Bosque Redondo Reservation at Fort Sumner\, NM in 1863.  The commemorative ride began six years ago with a small group of Navajo who wanted to pay homage to their ancestors.   Event programs include cookouts\, traditional singing\, important key-note speaker from the Navajo Nation\, participants’ testimonials about their feelings and thoughts about the historic event\, and spiritual observances.  URL:https://test-dca-mc.nmdca.net/dca-event/831-the-long-run-iv-motorcycle-ride-3-day-event/ LOCATION:Bosque Redondo Memorial at Fort Sumner\, 3647 Billy the Kid Drive\, Fort Sumner\, NM\, 88119\, United States CATEGORIES:Event GEO:34.403294;-104.196578 X-APPLE-STRUCTURED-LOCATION;VALUE=URI;X-ADDRESS=Bosque Redondo Memorial at Fort Sumner 3647 Billy the Kid Drive Fort Sumner NM 88119 United States;X-APPLE-RADIUS=500;X-TITLE=3647 Billy the Kid Drive:geo:-104.196578,34.403294 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Denver:20100616T120000 DTEND;TZID=America/Denver:20100616T140000 DTSTAMP:20230614T175347Z CREATED:20100127T224521Z LAST-MODIFIED:20230614T175347Z UID:10001775-1276689600-1276696800@test-dca-mc.nmdca.net SUMMARY:Let’s Take A Look with MIAC curators DESCRIPTION:During this time 12noon-2pm \, curators from The Museum of Indian Arts and Culture and The Laboratory of Anthropology are in the lobby of MIAC to look at your unidentified treasures.

In the years following the Mexican Revolution (1910–20)\, jewelry and other silver objects were crafted there with an entirely innovative approach\, informed by modernism and the creation of a new Mexican national identity. Antonio Pineda was a member of the Taxco School and is recognized as a world-class designer.  He lived a long and creative life\, passing away at the age of 90 on December 14\, 2009. \n  \nNearly two hundred examples of Pineda’s acclaimed silver work will be displayed in Silver Seduction: The Art of Mexican Modernist Antonio Pineda\, a traveling exhibition opening at the Museum of International Folk Art June 4\, 2010 through January 2\, 2011. Exhibition images may be found at http://media.museumofnewmexico.org/. \n  \nFrom its inception\, the Taxco movement broke new ground in technical achievement and design. While American- born\, Taxco-based designer William Spratling has been credited with spearheading the contemporary Taxco silver movement\, it was a group of talented Mexican designers who went on to establish independent workshops and develop the distinctive “Taxco School.” Pineda\, internationally renown for his silver work identified himself primarily as a taxqueño\, or Taxco\, silversmith. These designers incorporated numerous aesthetic orientations—Pre-Columbian art\, silverwork\, religious images\, and other artwork from the Mexican Colonial period\, and local popular arts—merging them within the broad spectrum of modernism. \n  \nPineda himself is lauded for his bold designs and ingenious use of gemstones. Silver Seduction traces the evolution of his work from the 1930s–70s\, and includes more than a hundred necklaces and bracelets\, as well as numerous rings\, earrings\, and diverse examples of his hollowware and tableware. All of the works feature Pineda’s hard-to-achieve combination of highly refined execution and hand-wrought appeal. \n  \nPineda’s jewelry is especially known for its elegant acknowledgment of the human form. It is often said that a Pineda fits the body perfectly\, that it feels right when it is worn. For example\, a thick geometric necklace that might at first glance seem too weighty or rigid to wear comfortably is\, in fact\, faceted\, hinged\, or hollowed in such a way that it gracefully encircles the neck or drapes seductively down the décolletage. \n  \nIn addition\, no other taxqueño jeweler used as many costly semiprecious stones or set them with as much ingenuity\, skill\, and variety as did Pineda. Only the most talented of silversmiths could master the unique challenges posed by setting gemstones in silver at the high temperature necessary to work the metal. Pineda\, however\, managed to set gems with as little metal touching them as possible\, giving them a free or floating look while still holding them firmly in place. In Pineda’s hands\, some stones were embedded; rows of gems were set close together to emphasize the structural lines of a design; or stones were cut to fit irregular shapes in a design. Pineda often used cultured pearls\, large amethyst drops\, and onyx in his designs\, many examples of which are on display in the exhibition. \n  \nThe remarkable creativity of this “Silver Renaissance” era represents a unique moment in the design of Mexican jewelry. Pineda’s and his colleagues’ modernist works lives on today in Taxco with a thriving industry in silver smithing. \n  \nThe opening on Friday\, June 4\, 2010 will be hosted by the Women’s Board of the Museum of New Mexico from 5:30 to 7:00 pm. \n  \nSilver Seduction: The Art of Mexican Modernist Antonio Pineda and its publication are made possible through the generosity of the Donald B. Cordry Memorial Fund and Jill and Barry Kitnick.  The exhibition was developed by the curatorial team of the Fowler Museum with consulting curator Gobi Stromberg. All works presented are either from the collections of Cindy Tietze and Stuart Hodosh or the Fowler Museum at UCLA. \n  \nMedia Contacts \nBarbara Mauldin\, Curator of Latin American Art \n505-476-1222 \nbarbara.mauldin@state.nm.us \n  \nSteve Cantrell\, PR Manger \n505-476-1144 \n505-310-3539 – cell \nsteve.cantrell@state.nm.us \n  \n  \n### \n  \nThe Museum of International Folk Art houses the world’s largest collection of international folk art.

Pagel will present new ideas in science and technology in the telling of a story. The event is in the New Mexico History Museum Auditorium. Seating is free\, first come\, first served. The event is sponsored by Milagro at Los Luceros. \n“For the filmmaker\, ‘story’ describes a sequence of actions and experiences by an individual confronting change as a way to reveal hidden aspects of a situation and the people involved\, each change engendering a new predicament. The response to each new situation creates the story and leads the story towards its conclusion\,” said Dr. Pagel. “For the scientist\, ‘story’ is our way of organizing experiential data into a special pattern that represents and explains our experience. Using the perspectives of both film and science\, we connect such previously unconnected disciplines in developing our stories. It’s truly eye-opening.” \nThe cross pollination of thought and idea from various medias and disciplines serves the Milagro mission to open up new job potentials for New Mexico storytellers from both within and outside the arts.  \nMilagro is a partnership of the Department of Cultural Affairs\, the State Film Office and Robert Redford\, with an emphasis on building film careers among Native American and Hispanic filmmakers. DCA purchased and operates the 148-acre Los Luceros property along the Rio Grande and is preserving its historic nature and integrity for the urpose of cultural\, artistic\, environmental and educational activities\, events and outreach.

(For more on the exhibit\, go to www.nmhistorymuseum.org/tesoros/.)  \nAs the exhibit reveals\, the santero’s art was founded on a broad tradition of Christian imagery\, but molded into a unique regional vernacular in the then-isolated Spanish colonies of New Mexico. Today\, the santos they created hold many stories – about small bands of settlers surviving in a distant land while developing a culture that has survived hundreds of years in mountain villages and acequia communities. About the colonial exploits of Europe and the cultures that both clashed and blended. About the flags that have flown over this land (Spain\, Mexico and the United States) and how those political changes affected families and communities. \nAt heart\, santos were a way to feel the divine presence through prayer and meditation and for asking a saint’s intercession.

(For more on the exhibit\, go to www.nmhistorymuseum.org/tesoros/.)  \nAs the exhibit reveals\, the santero’s art was founded on a broad tradition of Christian imagery\, but molded into a unique regional vernacular in the then-isolated Spanish colonies of New Mexico. Today\, the santos they created hold many stories – about small bands of settlers surviving in a distant land while developing a culture that has survived hundreds of years in mountain villages and acequia communities. About the colonial exploits of Europe and the cultures that both clashed and blended. About the flags that have flown over this land (Spain\, Mexico and the United States) and how those political changes affected families and communities. \nAt heart\, santos were a way to feel the divine presence through prayer and meditation and for asking a saint’s intercession.

Enter through the Washington Avenue doors for this event\, part of the Santa Fe 400th lecture series. \nWhether Santa Fe was in fact established in 1610 or earlier is a fine point to be argued by purists\, Sánchez says. Regardless of the date\, Gov. Peralta oversaw the early history of Santa Fe – and set in motion a struggle for power between successive governors and church officials. \n“In that context\,” Sánchez says\, “was Peralta a scoundrel\, as churchmen made him out to be? Or was he a man of his convictions who would unjustly be excommunicated from Santa Fe’s Catholic congregation\, arrested for the accidental shooting of a Franciscan missionary\, sent in shackles to a jail at Santo Domingo Pueblo\, condemned by his successor\, and exiled from New Mexico?” \nIn the end\, Peralta was exonerated by officials in Mexico City\, but 400 years later\, scholars still discuss the history that unfolded because of what he did – or didn’t – do. \nThe Santa Fe 400th lecture series builds on Santa Fe Found: Fragments of Time\, an exhibition at the Palace of the Governors that explores the first 100 years of Santa Fe following its colonization. \nSánchez is director of the University of New Mexico’s Spanish Colonial Research Center and superintendent of the Petroglyph National Monument. Throughout his career\, he has researched archives in Spain\, Mexico\, France\, Italy and England and has published several studies on the Spanish frontiers in California\, Arizona\, New Mexico\, Texas\, and Alaska. Internationally recognized\, in May 2000\, he was awarded the Medalla de Acero al Mérito Histórico Capitán Alonso de León by the Sociedad Nuevoleonesa de Historia\, Geografía y Estadística\, Monterrey\, Mexico\, for his lifelong work in Colonial Mexican history. In April 2005\, he was inducted into the prestigious knighthood order of the Orden de Isabel la Católica by King don Juan Carlos of Spain. \nFunding for the Santa Fe Found exhibition and lecture series comes from the Palace Guard\, a support group of the Museum of New Mexico Foundation; the Gala Opening Committee; Friends of Archaeology\, a support group of the Museum of New Mexico Foundation; the Santa Fe 400th; and the Museum of New Mexico Foundation. \n  URL:https://test-dca-mc.nmdca.net/dca-event/504-peralta-and-the-founding-of-santa-fe-a-santa-fe-400th-anniversary-lecture/ LOCATION:New Mexico History Museum\, 113 Lincoln Avenue\, Santa Fe\, NM\, 87501\, United States CATEGORIES:Event ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://test-dca-mc.nmdca.net/wp-content/uploads/2023/05/504_thumb.jpg ORGANIZER;CN="Marlon Magdalena":MAILTO:marlon.magdalena GEO:35.6883465;-105.9381345 X-APPLE-STRUCTURED-LOCATION;VALUE=URI;X-ADDRESS=New Mexico History Museum 113 Lincoln Avenue Santa Fe NM 87501 United States;X-APPLE-RADIUS=500;X-TITLE=113 Lincoln Avenue:geo:-105.9381345,35.6883465 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Denver:20100505T121500 DTEND;TZID=America/Denver:20100825T131500 DTSTAMP:20230614T175401Z CREATED:20120522T221321Z LAST-MODIFIED:20230614T175401Z UID:10001848-1273061700-1282742100@test-dca-mc.nmdca.net SUMMARY:Artist of the Week: Docent Gallery Talks DESCRIPTION:A lunchtime series of gallery talks by NM Museum of Art Docents featuring artists on display in the Museum\, including Sole Mates: Cowboy Boots and Art. \nWednesdays at 12:15 FREE with museum admission (NM Seniors are free on Wednesdays; NM residents: $6; Adults $9; children 16 and under free; $1 discount for students). \nMay 2010 \n 5 Fritz Scholder 12 E.

The event costs $10. Tickets are available at the museum shops and at www.museumfoundation.org/tellingnm. \nNote: This event was originally scheduled for a lecture on World War II by Ferenc Szasz\, who has since encountered a health issue. Richard Melzer has graciously agreed to speak in his place. \nThe Civilian Conservation Corps was the most popular and successful program of President Franklin D. Roosevelt's New Deal during the Great Depression of the 1930s. For more than 3 million young men across the United States\, the CCC often made the difference between starvation and survival – not only for the enrollees\, but also their families back home. The men learned skills\, improved their education\, got healthy\, prepared themselves for service in World War II\, and\, most importantly\, came of age during hard economic times. Melzer has documented the CCC experience in New Mexico\, describing how this highly effective program benefited more than 50\,000 enrollees in the state and became\, for most men\, the turning points in their lives. \nToday\, their legacies still stand in projects at Elephant Butte Lake\, Rattlesnake Springs near Carlsbad Caverns\, and Bandelier National Monument. \nMelzer\, originally from Teddy Roosevelt's hometown of Oyster Bay\, N.Y.\, has lived in New Mexico since 1973 and has taught history at the University of New Mexico's Valencia Campus since 1979. He is the author of more than 100 articles about New Mexico history and the author\, co-author\, or editor of 12 books\, including Coming of Age in the Great Depression: The Civilian Conservation Corps Experience in New Mexico\, 1933-1942 (Las Cruces: Yucca Tree Press\, 2000). Melzer is a past president the Historical Society of New Mexico and current president of the Valencia County Historical Society. \nAmong the many honors he has received for writing\, teaching and service to his profession\, he is most proud of receiving the UNM’s 1995 Teacher of the Year award. \nThe History Museum includes exhibits dedicated to the Depression and the “alphabet soup” of programs that built roads and schoolhouses and nurtured a generation of artists\, writers and musicians. \nThe lecture series continues on Sunday\, Aug. 22\, when Jennifer Nez Denetdale\, Northern Arizona University associate history professor\, speaks on "Dine'/Navajo Women: At the Intersection of Nation\, Gender\, and Tradition." \n  \n  \n   \n  \n \n  URL:https://test-dca-mc.nmdca.net/dca-event/546-new-mexicos-civilian-conservation-corps-experience-the-telling-new-mexico-inaugural-lecture-series/ LOCATION:New Mexico History Museum\, 113 Lincoln Avenue\, Santa Fe\, NM\, 87501\, United States CATEGORIES:Event ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://test-dca-mc.nmdca.net/wp-content/uploads/2023/05/546_thumb.jpg ORGANIZER;CN="Marlon Magdalena":MAILTO:marlon.magdalena GEO:35.6883465;-105.9381345 X-APPLE-STRUCTURED-LOCATION;VALUE=URI;X-ADDRESS=New Mexico History Museum 113 Lincoln Avenue Santa Fe NM 87501 United States;X-APPLE-RADIUS=500;X-TITLE=113 Lincoln Avenue:geo:-105.9381345,35.6883465 END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
