Rekindle a fresh interest in the natural world at this nature journaling workshop\, free with museum admission\, with celebrated artist Margy O'Brien. Space is limited; registration is required. \nCall (505) 476-5106 to reserve a space and receive a list of materials to bring to the class. \nDuring Journaling in the Seton Style for adults\, you'll learn techniques like cross-hatching and contour drawing. O’Brien will show and talk about her sketchbooks\, do a demo\, and offer guidelines to get started. After a lunch break (on your own; lunch is not provided)\, participants will fill pages in their own journals inspired by natural objects and guided by O’Brien.  Bring a sketchbook\, pencils\, pens\, and colored pencils or watercolors if desired. \nErnest Thompson Seton used his field observations in nature as the springboard to a lifetime of conservation\, including numerous books and artwork featuring realistic wildlife. His life is celebrated in Wild at Heart: Ernest Thompson Seton\, an original exhibit through May 8\, 2011. The exhibit is presented with special support from the Academy for the Love of Learning\, home of the Seton Legacy Project in Santa Fe. \nA full year of special events\, including workshops\, tours of Seton Castle and performances by storytellers\, accompany the exhibit. For details\, go to http://media.museumofnewmexico.org/events.php?action=detail&eventID=644. \nO’Brien’s work is included as part of another new exhibit\, Drawing on Nature\, at the New Mexico Museum of Natural History in Albuquerque (http://www.nmnaturalhistory.org/exhibits/2010DrawingonNature.html). The exhibit features the journals of 30 women\, including scientists\, writers\, photographers\, designers\, teachers and wilderness guides. \n“If children draw a tree\, they begin to see with understanding\, and that builds a bonding\, or caring about what they’ve drawn in their journals\,” O’Brien said. “There’s a long history of recording what we see\, of noting the results of our curiosity about the world. Cave wall paintings\, Leonardo da Vinci’s journals\, and explorer’s logbooks are all ways of detailing discoveries and adventures.” \nFunding for the Seton exhibit and programming events was made possible by the New Mexico Department of Cultural Affairs; National Park Service/Save Our Treasures Grant Program; Museum of New Mexico Foundation; New Mexico History Museum Opening Gala Committee; Phyllis and Edward Gladden Endowment Fund; Herzstein Family Endowment Fund; and the Palace Guard. \n  \n  \n  URL:https://test-dca-mc.nmdca.net/dca-event/701-nature-journaling-in-the-seton-style-a-workshop-for-adults/ 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/2023/05/701_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:20100717T090000 DTEND;TZID=America/Denver:20100718T150000 DTSTAMP:20230614T175400Z CREATED:20100429T042216Z LAST-MODIFIED:20230614T175400Z UID:10001846-1279357200-1279465200@test-dca-mc.nmdca.net SUMMARY:Young Native Artists Show and Sale A free\, family event DESCRIPTION:Children and grandchildren of artists associated with the Palace Portal Program will demonstrate their own arts and crafts in the Palace of the Governors' Meem Room. This program provides the children an opportunity to learn from their parents and grandparents and to continue the cultural economic development supported by the Portal. \nAlong the south side of the Palace of The Governors\, sit Native American artists and craftspeople who sell their handmade goods to tourists and local Santa Feans almost every day of the year\, rain or shine. The 900+ vendors represent forty-one tribes\, pueblos\, chapters and villages in New Mexico\, the Navajo Nation\, and parts of Arizona. The Vendors Committee creates and enforces rules for those who sell their work under the portal. The rules emphasize authenticity (a maker's mark is required on all goods)\, traditional materials\, and handmade work produced as generations of Native artisans have created it. \nThe vendors at the Palace of the Governors sell only the highest quality merchandise: handmade by the vendors themselves\, not mass-produced or imported. How can you tell the difference between real handmade art and cheap knock-offs? Check out our Guide to Buying Native American Art.

The event is free and open to the public. \nIn 2008\, Taylor received a Guggenheim Fellowship for his ongoing examination of the U.S.–Mexico border. His investigation is organized around the documentation of a series of approximately 260 obelisks that mark the international boundary as it extends from El Paso/Juarez to San Diego/ Tijuana. These monuments—striking objects situated in impossibly gorgeous and difficult terrain—were installed between the years 1892 and 1895. \nThrough his work\, Taylor has earned remarkable access to U.S. Border Patrol facilities\, agents and routine operations. Patrol agents often refer to their job in the field as "line work" which is an apt description of Taylor's own time as he documented the obelisks. \nBeing on the "line" has given Taylor a unique view into overlapping issues of border security\, human and drug smuggling\, the continuing construction of the border fence and its impact on the land. This book captures the complexity of the terrain\, the politics\, and the human dynamics involved. His images are documentary in nature\, but also formally and visually compelling. \nTaylor will sign copies of the book and participate in a discussion with these panelists: \n Paul F. Wells\, a 30-year veteran of the United States Border Patrol  \n David J. Garcia\, a member of the Tohono O’Odham Nation (whos ancestral lands span the U.S./Mexico Border) and the Chukut Kuk District\, which fronts the international boundary  \n Hannah Frieser\, a photographer and book artist  whose essays are included in Working the Line \n Darius Himes\, acquiring editor at Radius Books\, a nonprofit publisher of books on photography and the visual arts he founded with three colleagues in 2007  \n David Chickey\, a founding member of Radius Books  \n Mary Anne Redding\, curator of photography at the New Mexico History Museum  \n \nTaylor earned an MFA from the University of Oregon and a BFA from the School of the Museum of Fine Arts and Tufts University. His photographs\, multimedia installations\, and artist’s books have been exhibited in group and solo exhibitions at The Aldrich Contemporary Art Museum\, Ridgefield\, Connecticut; 516 Arts\, Albuquerque\, New Mexico; the Stanlee and Gerald Rubin Center for the Visual Arts at the University of Texas at El Paso; El Paso Museum of Art; SF Camerawork\, San Francisco; Society for Contemporary Photography\, Kansas City\, MO; and Northlight Gallery at Arizona State University\, Tempe. His work is in a number of permanent collections\, including Columbia College Museum of Contemporary Photography\, Chicago; Washington State Arts Commission\, Olympia; University of Washington\, Seattle; El Paso Museum of Art; Fidelity Investments\, Boston; the Museum of Fine Arts\, Houston; and the Palace of the Governors/New Mexico History Museum. Taylor has completed recent major commissions for artwork that is installed in the U.S. Border Patrol Station in Van Horn\, Texas and the United States Federal Courthouse in Las Cruces\, New Mexico. Taylor’s ongoing examination of the U.S. Mexico border was supported by a 2008 Fellowship from the John Simon Guggenheim Memorial Foundation. \nCopies of his book with a 24-page accordion-fold booklet will be available at the event for $50. A signed\, limited-edition copy with a signed print in a folio will be $800. \n  \n  \n   \n  URL:https://test-dca-mc.nmdca.net/dca-event/732-working-the-line-photography-and-controversy-on-the-border-photographer-david-taylor-booksigning-and-panel-discussion/ 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/2023/05/732_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:20100710T100000 DTEND;TZID=America/Denver:20100710T130000 DTSTAMP:20230614T175356Z CREATED:20100701T233911Z LAST-MODIFIED:20230614T175356Z UID:10001826-1278756000-1278766800@test-dca-mc.nmdca.net SUMMARY:Nature Journaling in the Seton Style A workshop for children DESCRIPTION:Noted artist Margy O’Brien leads one of two “Journaling in the Seton Style” workshops in the New Mexico History Museum classroom as part of the new exhibit\, Wild at Heart: Ernest Thompson Seton.

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:20100528T100000 DTEND;TZID=America/Denver:20100531T170000 DTSTAMP:20230614T175403Z CREATED:20100526T233243Z LAST-MODIFIED:20230614T175403Z UID:10001851-1275040800-1275325200@test-dca-mc.nmdca.net SUMMARY:Memorial Day weekend schedule DESCRIPTION:The New Mexico History Museum will observe these openings and closings on Memorial Day weekend: \nFriday\, May 28: Closed.

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.

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:20100502T140000 DTEND;TZID=America/Denver:20100502T153000 DTSTAMP:20230614T175338Z CREATED:20100421T220843Z LAST-MODIFIED:20230614T175338Z UID:10001734-1272808800-1272814200@test-dca-mc.nmdca.net SUMMARY:New Mexico’s Civilian Conservation Corps Experience The Telling New Mexico Inaugural Lecture Series DESCRIPTION:Noted author and historian Richard Melzer will speak on the “The Civilian Conservation Corps Experience in New Mexico\,” the next talk in the Telling New Mexico Inaugural Lecture Series\, at 2 p.m.\, Sunday\, May 2\, in the History Museum Auditorium. 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 BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Denver:20100417T140000 DTEND;TZID=America/Denver:20100417T153000 DTSTAMP:20230614T175336Z CREATED:20100406T023120Z LAST-MODIFIED:20230614T175336Z UID:10001724-1271512800-1271518200@test-dca-mc.nmdca.net SUMMARY:The Journey of Mayolica Pottery A Santa Fe Found lecture DESCRIPTION:Learn about the risky “Journey of Mayólica” pottery up El Camino Real to Santa Fe in a lecture by Robin Farwell Gavin at 2 pm Saturday\, April 17\, in the New Mexico History Museum Auditorium. The event is free with museum admission. \nThe lecture is part of the Santa Fe Found lecture series that supports Santa Fe Found: Fragments of Time\, an exhibit at the Palace of the Governors exploring the roots of Santa Fe\, this year celebrating its 400th anniversary. The exhibit uses historic documents\, period paintings and archaeological artifacts to detail life in colonial Mexico and Spain’s far northern frontier. It includes sherds of blue-and-white mayólica pottery that once made up objects like an ink well\, also on display. From its origins in medieval Spain\, it endured first an ocean journey then an overland caravan to Santa Fe. \nBesides tracing that journey\, Gavin will look at the materials\, techniques and styles of mayólica\, as well as artists who still produce such work. Various styles of pottery from France\, Italy\, England and China influenced one another as well as the design and production of Pueblo pottery. \n“Through one single sherd\,” Gavin said\, “we can explore the colonial world – the lives of the potters who made them\, the places in which they were created\, their uses in churches\, conventos and homes\, the importance they lent to social occasions. \n“We can see the influence of Muslim art\, of Italian Renaissance art\, of Chinese porcelains brought to the Americas on the Manila galleons\, and of the French rococo style\, as well as Indian chintz fabrics and Staffordshire pottery. We can reconstruct the table settings of the 18th century from Spain to Mexico to New Mexico\, and we can imagine the social situations in which these vessels were a symbol as well as a necessity.” \nGavin is chief curator for the Museum of Spanish Colonial Art and consulting curator of collections for El Rancho de las Golondrinas.  A Chicago native\, she has been the lead curator for more than 20 exhibitions at the Museum of Spanish Colonial Art and Museum of International Folk Art concerning the Spanish colonial arts of Mexico and New Mexico\, and has written several articles\, gallery guides\, and books on the subject. \nThe next lecture supporting the Santa Fe Found exhibition will be at 6 pm\, May 13\, when Joseph Sánchez\, director of UNM’s Spanish Colonial Research Center and director of the Petroglyph National Monument\, speaks on “Peralta and the Founding of Santa Fe. \nFunding for the Santa Fe Found exhibition and lecture series was made possible by 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  \n  \n  \n  URL:https://test-dca-mc.nmdca.net/dca-event/536-the-journey-of-mayolica-pottery-a-santa-fe-found-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/2023/05/536_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:20100411T160000 DTEND;TZID=America/Denver:20100411T200000 DTSTAMP:20230614T175344Z CREATED:20100410T052129Z LAST-MODIFIED:20230614T175344Z UID:10001763-1271001600-1271016000@test-dca-mc.nmdca.net SUMMARY:A Fred Harvey Dinner Party Lecture\, book launch and Harvey House dinner DESCRIPTION:THIS EVENT IS SOLD OUT \nThe New Mexico History Museum and La Fonda Hotel\, a former Harvey House\, host the launch of award-winning journalist Stephen Fried’s book\, Appetite for America\, with a lecture and historic dinner  on Sunday\, April 11\, 2010. The event begins in the History Museum Auditorium with a 4 p.m. lecture by Fried\, followed by a 6 p.m. dinner at La Fonda\, which will whip up “Chicken Lucrecio\,” among other delicacies from Harvey menus. \n \nSeating is limited for both events. Tickets include a signed copy of Appetite for America (Bantam/Random House\, 2010). The cost for the lecture is $50; the lecture with the dinner costs $95. Sponsorship tickets cost $200 and include preference seating at the lecture and dinner\, as well as a listing on the event poster. A limited number of a reduced-cost rooms at La Fonda are also available the evening of the event. \nTo purchase tickets to the event\, go to either of the History Museum’s shops\, call (505) 982-9543\, or log onto https://www.museumfoundation.org/HarveyHouse. \nFor La Fonda’s room reservations\, call (800) 523-5002\, ext. 1\, or send an e-mail to www.lafondasantafe.com/email-group.html; mention the “Harvey/NM History Museum event” in the subject line. \nAppetite for America is the story of Fred Harvey\, who came to the United States from England in the 1850s as a penniless teenager\, worked for saloons and the railroads and\, at the age of 40\, had a brilliant idea that changed America. His trackside eatery in Topeka\, Kansas\, grew into a powerful family business that forever changed the way Americans eat\, drink\, sleep\, travel and spend leisure time. \n  \n \nFred Harvey ended up building a revolutionary company feeding train passengers along the upstart Santa Fe railroad. With his son\, he expanded into the first national chain of restaurants\, hotels and bookstores from Chicago to California – even into the Grand Canyon. His beloved “Harvey Girls” were some of the first working women in America\, later inspiring an Oscar-winning movie starring Judy Garland. His firm introduced the country to Native American arts and culture and “Santa Fe Style.” \nStephen Fried brings a fresh eye to America’s expansion into the Wild West of Bat Masterson and Billy the Kid\, following the country and the company as they grew up together through the early days of trains\, autos and planes. The restaurant/hotels that Harvey and his equally brilliant son\, Ford\, built would be enjoyed by princes and presidents\, as well as countless ordinary travelers who simply wanted a travel experience grand enough to match the scenery. \nIn 1881\, Fred Harvey began arranging for tourists to visit Santa Fe from his eating house at the depot in Lamy. In the late 1890s\, his company began displaying and selling Native arts and crafts\, starting with its restaurant in Gallup\, but most visibly in Albuquerque’s Alvarado Hotel\, built in 1902. The hotel’s sales area\, designed by a young architect named Mary Colter\, had a look that came to be known as “Santa Fe Style.” Colter worked with famed architect John Gaw Meem on expanding La Fonda from 1924-30 and\, in 1949\, designed the hotel’s lounge\, using Spanish and Indian designs. \nIn 1915\, Harvey worked with the Santa Fe community\, including Museum of New Mexico founder Edgar Hewett and his protégé\, Jesse Nusbaum\, to create a 10-acre\, full-scale Pueblo for the Panama-California Exposition in San Diego. Among those who lived at the exhibit was a young Maria Martinez\, who would later gain fame for her San Ildefonso pottery. \nHistoric documents show that an inn\, or fonda\, has long stood on the southeastern corner of the Santa Fe Plaza. During the 19th century\, La Fonda became the preferred destination of trappers\, soldiers\, gold seekers\, gamblers and politicians. Through the Civil War\, railroad expansion and New Mexico statehood in 1912\, the old adobe structure changed hands and names several times but remained a Santa Fe landmark. The Harvey company purchased it 1926. Debuting in 1929\, it offered the nation’s first version of cultural tourism: “Indian Detours” that carried tourists to nearby pueblos in touring vehicles. An exhibit on the History Museum’s mezzanine level pays homage to the Harvey era. \nBusinessman Sam Ballen purchased La Fonda in 1968; his family has continued his legacy of combining historic preservation with modern amenities. \nFried’s insights into the Harvey empire include how the company managed to foster an early “foodie” generation in some of the most remote locales; how Harvey’s granddaughter saw and nurtured the talents of a 9-year-old Hopi named Fred Kabotie\, who became a premier Native artist; how pre-publication orders for his newsstands and bookshops affected national bestseller lists. \n For more on Fred Harvey’s impact on New Mexico and the American West\, go to http://media.museumofnewmexico.org/press_releases.php?action=detail&releaseID=71.

"My Penitente Land\," a free\, public event\, takes place from 10 am to 4:30 pm on Saturday\, April 10\, in the museum auditorium (enter from Washington Avenue). \nThe symposium will gather the general public and scholars to exchange thoughts on Fray Angélico’s influence on New Mexico and share their stories about him. \n“Fray Angélico’s love was New Mexico\, its history and culture\,” said Tomas Jaehn\, director of the Fray Angélico Chávez History Library. “Interested in the people who settled New Mexico\, he is well-know for his work in genealogy.  At least once a month\, a patron visiting the Library tells me\, `I knew Fray Angélico personally.’” \nSpeakers at the symposium will include Archbishop Michael J. Sheehan\, poet Jimmy Santiago Baca\, authors Nasario Garcia\, Ellen McCracken\, whose biography of Fray Angélico was just published by the University of New Mexcio Press\, and Thomas Chávez\, former director of the Palace of the Governors and a nephew of Fray Angélico  (See the full schedule below.) \nBorn Manuel Ezequiel Chávez in Wagon Mound\, N.M.\, Fray Angélico was a noted priest\, writer\, painter and historian. Ordained as a Franciscan friar\, he served several parishes in New Mexico and was instrumental in renovating the church in Peña Blanca – a true hands-on effort. The murals he painted of the Stations of the Cross used images of himself\, his family and parishioners. He also renovated churches in Domingo Station\, Golden and Cerrillos. \nAs an Army chaplain\, he was present for the World War II beach landings at Guam and Leyte and\, during the Korean War\, was stationed at Fort Bliss\, Texas\, and Kaiserslautern\, Germany. \nUpon his return\, Chávez was appointed archivist of the Archdiocese of Santa Fe\, where he catalogued and translated the Church’s Spanish archives. As noted in a biography on the Web site of the New Mexico Office of the State Historian: \n"While digging for the golden nuggets of Franciscan history in the archdiocesan archives\, he instead came across baptismal\, marriage\, and death records that revealed much about the families who had settled the region. He wrote: “It was like the case of a miner who sifted a hill of ore for gold\, setting aside any silver he encountered; in the end the silver far outweighed the gold. The only thing to do was to render the silver useful.” He compiled the silver and published the Origins of New Mexico Families: A Genealogy of the Spanish Colonial Period in 1954. Genealogists searching for their familial roots have found the book invaluable." \nChávez is perhaps best known for writing La Conquistadora\, the Autobiography of an Ancient Statue about the figure of the Virgin Mary revered by parishioners of St. Francis Cathedral in Santa Fe. He also wrote short stories\, novels and poetry. T.S. Eliot called his poem\, The Virgin of Port Lligat in 1959 a “very commendable achievement.” \nAfter his death in 1996\, the History Library was named in his honor\, and a bronze statue of him graces its entrance. A self-portrait is on display in the Palace of the Governors’ Portrait Gallery\, and it carries an interesting tale. Painted in 1939 as an “idle sketch” on a board by Fray Angélico in 1939\, it was later trimmed down to repair a drawer in the convent at Peña Blanca. \nIn 1970\, someone cleaning out the drawers happened upon it. Fray Angélico donated it to the museum\, writing: “I thought you might display it more as a curiosity than a work of art.” \nA finely rendered sketch of the young friar\, the portrait is\, contrary to his recommendation\, displayed as a work of art. \nThe symposium schedule: \n10-10:25 am: Frances Levine\, director of the New Mexico History Museum; Archbishop Michael J. Sheehan\, Archdiocese of Santa Fe \n10:30-10:40: Jimmy Santiago Baca\, poet \n10:40-10:55: Fabian Chávez\, former legislative leader\, longtime public servant and brother of Fray Angélico \n11-11:30: Nasario Garcia\, professor emeritus of Hispanic Languages and Literatures \n11:35-12:05: Thomas E.

Philatelists will surely flock to this onetime event\, where first-day cancellations will be available on site. Seating is limited at this free\, public event. \n \nDuring World War II\, military readers got a knowing laugh from Mauldin’s characters Willie and Joe\, who gave their civilian audience an idea of what life was like for soldiers. After the war\, Mauldin became a popular and influential editorial cartoonist. \nThe History Museum's core exhibition\, Telling New Mexico: Stories from Then and Now\, includes a section on World War II that attendees will be able to tour after the unveiling. \nWilliam Henry Mauldin was born on October 29\, 1921\, in Mountain Park\, New Mexico\, where his family had a farm with apple orchards. He is said to have made impressive drawings before he could talk\, and his mother kept him supplied with paper and pencils. Though thin\, sickly\, and given to daydreams\, he was tough and scrappy. When a teacher scolded him for doodling in class\, he replied that he couldn’t think without drawing. \nWhile leafing through a magazine in 1935\, Mauldin saw an advertisement for a correspondence course in cartooning. The ad suggested that cartoonists could make a good living; seeing this as a way to capitalize on his natural ability\, Mauldin enrolled in the course. He began offering his services as a freelance artist to the community at large\, and was hired to create various forms of advertising. \nIn 1936\, Mauldin moved with his older brother to Phoenix\, Arizona\, and went to high school while continuing to do freelance work. He also worked as an editorial cartoonist for the school newspaper. At the age of 17\, Mauldin went to Chicago\, where he enrolled in the Chicago Academy of Fine Arts. He diligently sent work to prospective buyers\, with discouraging results. Unemployment was high\, and war was beginning in Europe. \nAfter returning to Phoenix in 1940\, Mauldin enlisted in the Arizona National Guard. Days later\, the Arizona Guard was federalized and Mauldin found himself in the United States Army. His first Army cartoons were published that year in 45th Division News. The war took Mauldin to North Africa and then to Europe; he was in Italy in 1943\, when his work began appearing in Stars and Stripes\, a large daily newspaper then published by an independent unit of the headquarters of Gen. Dwight D. Eisenhower\, the Allied commander. \nIn Stars and Stripes\, Mauldin’s cartoons first appeared under the title “Up Front … with Mauldin.” He subsequently changed the name to “Up Front … by Mauldin” because\, though he was at the front—and received the Purple Heart after being struck by a fragment of mortar—he never drew in a foxhole and was strictly rear-echelon. Commenting later on his injury\, he said\, “I had been cut worse sneaking through barbed-wire fences in New Mexico.” \nMauldin’s work made him a hero to many military men\, who could tell he was on the side of the lowly soldier in a time when glamorous fighter pilots got more attention. His sympathy for “dogfaces” (the slang term for soldiers in the infantry) was clearly expressed in his presentation of his unshaven protagonists\, Willie and Joe. The celebrated war correspondent Ernie Pyle touched off wider interest in Mauldin’s work when he wrote admiringly\, “Bill Mauldin appears to us over here to be the finest cartoonist the war has produced. And that’s not merely because his cartoons are funny\, but because they are also terribly grim and real.” \nFor civilian readers back home\, Mauldin’s syndicated cartoons offered an eye-opening look at the experience—sleeping in barns\, dodging bullets in foxholes\, and so on—of American soldiers in Europe. Above all\, his cartoons show the tedium of war; when there is heroism\, it’s understated. With humor or small acts of kindness\, Willie and Joe support each other in grim circumstances. \nSome of Mauldin’s cartoons touched on relations between officers and enlisted men. In one panel\, two officers admire the scenery from a mountaintop\, with one exclaiming\, “Beautiful view! Is there one for the enlisted men?” Gen. George S. Patton publicly questioned Mauldin’s patriotism—among other things\, he objected to the bedraggled appearance of Willie and Joe—but Mauldin’s success and growing fame protected him from serious repercussions. \nAnother iconic cartoon depicted a cavalryman shooting his disabled jeep. Mauldin later commented proudly on this effort: “It is one of those cartoon ideas you think up rarely; it has simplicity\, it tells a story\, it doesn’t need words. It is\, I believe\, the very best kind of cartoon.” \nBy the time Mauldin came home to the United States in 1945\, he was famous. He won a Pulitzer Prize “for distinguished service as a cartoonist” and the Allied high command awarded him its Legion of Merit. His illustrated memoir\, Up Front\, was a bestseller. That same year\, his “dogface” Willie appeared on the cover of Time. \nAfter the war\, Mauldin grew tired of censorship battles with editors and temporarily retired from cartooning to try his hand at a variety of freelance endeavors. He acted in two films (Teresa and The Red Badge of Courage)\, covered the Korean War for Collier’s\, and made an unsuccessful run for Congress in New York’s 28th Congressional district\, losing narrowly to the Republican incumbent. In 1958\, he took a job as a cartoonist for the St. Louis Post-Dispatch. The following year\, he won a second Pulitzer Prize for his cartoon portraying Boris Pasternak\, author of Doctor Zhivago\, as a Soviet prisoner: “I won the Nobel Prize for Literature. What was your crime?” \nSome of Mauldin’s other targets during these years were segregationists and red-baiters. In 1962\, he joined the staff of the Chicago Sun-Times\, where one of his most famous cartoons\, drawn on tight deadline after the assassination of President John F. Kennedy\, expressed the nation’s grief by showing a monumental Abraham Lincoln burying his head in his hands. The Sun-Times later sent Mauldin to Vietnam to observe the war there firsthand. An irreverent memoir\, The Brass Ring\, was published in 1971. \nSuffering from Alzheimer’s disease and other complications\, Bill Mauldin died at age 81 on January 22\, 2003\, at a nursing home in Newport Beach\, California. He had received mail and visits there from many combat veterans hoping to lift his spirits much as Willie and Joe had lifted theirs during the war nearly 60 years earlier. He is buried in Arlington National Cemetery. \nU.S. Postal Service art director Terry McCaffrey chose to honor Mauldin through a combination of photography and an example of Mauldin’s art. The photo of Bill Mauldin is by John Phillips\, a photographer for Life magazine; it was taken in Italy on December 31\, 1943. Mauldin’s cartoon\, showing his characters Willie and Joe\, is used courtesy of the 45th Infantry Division Museum in Oklahoma City\, Oklahoma. \n  \n   \n  URL:https://test-dca-mc.nmdca.net/dca-event/667-bill-mauldin-postage-stamp-unveiling-a-free-public-event/ 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/2023/05/667_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:20100328T140000 DTEND;TZID=America/Denver:20100328T160000 DTSTAMP:20230614T175338Z CREATED:20100302T034430Z LAST-MODIFIED:20230614T175338Z UID:10001733-1269784800-1269792000@test-dca-mc.nmdca.net SUMMARY:Exile from Paradise\, Internment in New Mexico: My Grandfather’s Journey The Telling New Mexico Inaugural Lecture Series DESCRIPTION:Gail Y. Okawa\, professor of English at Youngstown State University in Ohio\, delivers the next talk in the Telling New Mexico Inaugural Lecture Series at 2 pm Sunday\, March 28\, in the History Museum Auditorium\, 113 Lincoln Ave. “Exile from Paradise\, Internment in New Mexico: My Grandfather’s Journey\,” recounts Okawa’s search for a family story that had lived in silence – and that carries lessons for today. \n  \nThe lecture costs $10. Tickets can be purchased at any of the Museum of New Mexico shops or online at http://www.museumfoundation.org/tellingnm. The lecture series supports the History Museum's core exhibition as well as the book Telling New Mexico: A New History (Museum of New Mexico Press\, 2009). \nA granite boulder at Frank S. Ortiz Park looking down into Santa Fe’s Casa Solana neighborhood marks the World War II site of an internment camp that held 4\,555 Japanese and Japanese-American internees from 1942-46. In all\, the United States imprisoned 17\,477 people of Japanese ancestry and relocated 120\,000 American-born Japanese and their parents into wartime camps. The U.S. Department of Justice oversaw the camp in Santa Fe; the U.S. Army maintained others. \nThe History Museum’s core exhibition\, Telling New Mexico: Stories from Then and Now includes illustrations of camp life done by one of the guards\, Hal West. \nOkawa’s maternal grandfather was moved from his home in Hawaii to Lordsburg\, N.M.\, and then Santa Fe. The late Tamasaku Watanabe was an ordained minister in the Presbyterian Church of the U.S.A. Okawa’s chapter in Telling New Mexico includes portions of a letter she wrote to him after his death\, when she had begun piecing together the scraps of his history: \nThe legacy of your experience and that of others like you who endured internment must be in what we who follow can learn from your political misfortune and your personal fortitude. We must be vigilant to the acts and words today echoing those that surrounded your unjust and unwarranted imprisonment. And we must understand that though you were silent\, like so many others\, about this difficult time in your life\, you were no less affected by the degradation\, no less courageous for bearing it. \nIn 1988\, the United States officially apologized for the internments\, saying the actions were the result of "race prejudice\, war hysteria\, and a failure of political leadership." \nAs a scholar-in-residence at the Smithsonian Institution in 2002\, Okawa began a study of U.S. language history through ethnic language artifacts in the Smithsonian collections. Since 2003\, she has been engaged in research on the politics of language/literacy\, identity\, and culture among Japanese immigrants\, including her maternal grandfather. An advisory board member of the New Mexico Digital History Project\, she has published numerous articles in national journals and anthologies and has presented papers and lectures locally in Santa Fe and Albuquerque\, as well as nationally and internationally. She is working on a book-length study\, More Than A Mugshot: Hawai`i Japanese Immigrants in World War II U.S. Department of Justice Internment. \nTwo other lectures remain in the Telling New Mexico Inaugural Lecture Series. Each will be held at 2 pm in the Museum Auditorium: \nMay 2: UNM Regents’ Professor of History Ferenc Szasz on “New Mexico in the Era of the Second World War.” Szasz has written several books on the early history of the Atomic Age; his latest is Larger Than Life: New Mexico in the Twentieth Century. \nAug. 22: Diné author and Northern Arizona University Associate Professor of History Jennifer Nez Denetdale on " Dine'/Navajo Women: At the Intersection of Nation\, Gender\, and Tradition\," from her current book project. Denetdale has also written Reclaiming Diné History: The Legacies of Chief Manuelito and Juanita and a book for young adults\, The Long Walk: The Forced Navajo Exile. \n  \n  URL:https://test-dca-mc.nmdca.net/dca-event/545-exile-from-paradise-internment-in-new-mexico-my-grandfathers-journey-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/2023/05/545_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:20100327T130000 DTEND;TZID=America/Denver:20100327T170000 DTSTAMP:20230614T175350Z CREATED:20100318T220659Z LAST-MODIFIED:20230614T175350Z UID:10001797-1269694800-1269709200@test-dca-mc.nmdca.net SUMMARY:Beneath the City Different: The Archaeology of Santa Fe Second chance to catch this sell-out event DESCRIPTION:THIS EVENT IS SOLD OUT \nDeepen your understanding of Santa Fe's 400th anniversary\, as well as the new exhibit\, Santa Fe Found: Fragments of Time\, at this special symposium\, 1-5 pm\, Saturday\, March 27\, at the New Mexico History Museum Auditorium\, 113 Lincoln Ave. Admission is $10; call 505-954-7200 for tickets. \nThis is the repeat of an event held last November. Tickets for that one sold out within weeks\, so call soon. \n"Beneath the City Different: The Archaeology of Santa Fe" is sponsored by the Friends of Archaeology (a support group within the Museum of New Mexico Foundation) and the School for Advanced Research — two institutions founded by Edgar L. Hewett\, a leading archaeologist and anthropologist and the first director of the Museum of New Mexico. The event features seven archaeologists speaking on different periods of Santa Fe's history\, from ancient to modern times. \nThrough recent archaeological excavations in the downtown Santa Fe area\, these researchers have given us new information about a recently discovered past — a past not yet covered in history books. The archaeologists will begin with a look at Santa Fe’s first seasonal residents\, nomadic hunters and gatherers who came to pick wild plants and piñon nuts. Then they will talk about the later Pueblo people who built several large villages and survived by farming. The severity and luxury of Spanish Colonial life will also be discussed\, as well as the economic and social changes brought by the Santa Fe Trail. Finally\, the archaeologists will examine the agricultural and later industrial use of the recently developed Santa Fe Railyard area. \n \nTickets cost $10 and seating is limited. To purchase a ticket\, call 505-954-7200 or mail your name\, mailing address\, phone number\, email address\, and payment to: \nBeneath the City Different School for Advanced Research P.O.

More than 90\,000 artifacts were unearthed from the 17th-century\, revealing tales of life as it once was. \nOther featured archaeological sites add to the story. The Baca-Garvisu site was the home of a prominent Santa Fe family in the 1700s\, located where the Santa Fe Community Convention Center now stands. The Sanchez Site\, an early Spanish estancia\, or rural settlement\, was partly excavated in the 1980s and is now managed by El Rancho de los Golondrinas. Also prominent in the exhibition is San Gabriel del Yungue at the Pueblo of Ohkay Owingeh\, where the first Spanish colonists briefly set their roots. \nFunding for the Santa Fe Found exhibition was made possible by 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/664-beneath-the-city-different-the-archaeology-of-santa-fe-second-chance-to-catch-this-sell-out-event/ 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/2023/05/664_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:20100319T100000 DTEND;TZID=America/Denver:20100320T170000 DTSTAMP:20230614T175351Z CREATED:20100318T221324Z LAST-MODIFIED:20230614T175351Z UID:10001803-1268992800-1269104400@test-dca-mc.nmdca.net SUMMARY:Palace Press Closed Re-opening March 21 DESCRIPTION:The Press at the Palace of the Governors will be closed on Friday and Saturday\, March 19 and 20.

A Santa Fe Found lecture DESCRIPTION:Is Santa Fe really 400 years old? Join Thomas Chávez\, former director of the Palace of the Governors\, for a lecture on the "first" founder of Santa Fe\, Juan Martínez de Montoya. This latest lecture in support of the exhibit Santa Fe Found: Fragments of Time is free with museum admission. The lecture series also supports the city of Santa Fe’s 400th anniversary. \nThe precise date of the city's anniversary has entangled historians\, politicians and others attempting to pinpoint the birthdate of what was then Spain’s far northern frontier. Chávez will talk about that controversy\, as well as the story behind Martínez de Montoya\, sometimes regarded as the “first” founder of Santa Fe. \nSanta Fe Found\, which details the city’s origins through documents and archaeological evidence\, tells of the soldiers who left the Spanish colony of San Gabriel to settle a new colony away from occupied Pueblo colonies. Martínez de Montoya\, a Castilian-born captain who opposed then leader Don Juan de Oñate\, left family papers that show he and a small group of soldiers settled Santa Fe between 1604 and 1608. \nAppointed governor by the viceroy in June 1608\, Martínez de Montoya was rejected as a leader by Oñate loyalists\, who installed his son\, Cristóbal\, instead. Martínez de Montoya persuaded the viceroy to send Pedro de Peralta to Santa Fe to establish a permanent villa and\, in 1610\, Peralta did so\, naming the new capital La Villa Real de la Santa Fe de San Francisco de Asís. \nChávez is former director of the Palace of the Governors and former executive director of the National Hispanic Cultural Center. An active scholar\, he contributed to the book Telling New Mexico: A New History that supports the core exhibition of the New Mexico History Museum. \nUpcoming lectures in the series: \nSaturday\, April 17\, 2 pm: Robin Farwell Gavin\, senior curator\, Museum of Spanish Colonial Art\, “The Journey of Mayólica.” Free with museum admission. \nThursday\, May 13\, 6 pm: Joseph Sánchez\, director\, University of New Mexico Spanish Colonial Research Center\, and director\, Petroglyph National Monument\, “Peralta and the Founding of Santa Fe.” Free. \nFunding for the exhibition and lecture series was made possible by 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 \n  URL:https://test-dca-mc.nmdca.net/dca-event/535-just-how-old-is-santa-fe-a-santa-fe-found-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/2023/05/535_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;VALUE=DATE:20100305 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20100306 DTSTAMP:20230614T175350Z CREATED:20100213T012533Z LAST-MODIFIED:20230614T175350Z UID:10001796-1267747200-1267833599@test-dca-mc.nmdca.net SUMMARY:Closed - state government furlough day DESCRIPTION:The New Mexico History Museum will be closed on Friday\, March 5\, for the state government furlough day.

The event is free with museum admission. \nThe latest lecture in support of the exhibit Santa Fe Found: Fragments of Time\, it focuses on the gripping tale of Doña Teresa\, wife of colonial Governor Bernardo López de Mendizábel\, whose brief tenure was colored by turmoil and ended with the arrests of him\, his wife and key aides. In Mexico City\, the couple faced the Inquisition against a battery of 200 accusations – unbridled greed\, blasphemy and hostility toward the Catholic Church\, and the suspicion that Mendizábel and his wife were secret Jews. \nAt trial – a lengthy process made notable by the secret identities of the accusers – Doña Teresa\, the only woman from New Mexico ever tried before the Inquisition\, shot back with accusations of her own. With her defense\, she not only damaged the credibility of her accusers but managed to paint a picture of a 17th-century Santa Fe marked by clannish behaviors\, conspiracies\, adultery and thievery (including thefts of the household chocolate). \nHer husband died in prison and was buried in unconsecrated ground\, but Doña Teresa was freed after her case was suspended in 1664. She pressed for exoneration of her husband and\, in 1671\,the Holy Office decided to drop its case. His body was exhumed and reburied at Santo Domingo Church\, not far from the Zocalo in Mexico City. \nDr. Levine\, director of the New Mexico History Museum\, has worked with historian Gerald González in researching Doña Teresa. Besides his explorations into Southwest history and culture\, González\, an attorney\, has worked on issues of Hispanic land grants and tribal sovereignty. His poetry has been published in New Mexico Magazine and La Luz. \nLevine’s lecture is part of a series supporting the exhibit Santa Fe Found: Fragments of Time. The exhibit uses historical documents and archaeological evidence to tell the story of Santa Fe’s founding\, 400 years old this year. The artifacts include items that were dug up during the excavation that preceded the History Museum’s construction just north of the Palace of the Governors. \nUpcoming lectures: \nSaturday\, March 13\, 2 pm: Thomas E. Chávez\, retired executive director\, National Hispanic Culture Center\, and former director\, Palace of the Governors\, “Juan Martínez de Montoya and the Establishment of Santa Fe.” Free with museum admission. \nSaturday\, April 17\, 2 pm: Robin Farwell Gavin\, senior curator\, Museum of Spanish Colonial Art\, The Journey of Mayólica.” Free with museum admission. \nThursday\, May 13\, 6 pm: Joseph Sánchez\, director\, University of New Mexico Spanish Colonial Research Center\, and director\, Petroglyph National Monument\, “Peralta and the Founding of Santa Fe.” Free. \nFunding for the Santa Fe Found exhibition and lecture series was made possible by 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  \n   \n  \n  URL:https://test-dca-mc.nmdca.net/dca-event/503-in-her-own-voice-dona-teresa-and-intrigue-in-the-palace-a-santa-fe-found-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/2023/05/503_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:20100207T140000 DTEND;TZID=America/Denver:20100207T150000 DTSTAMP:20230614T175350Z CREATED:20100202T062903Z LAST-MODIFIED:20230614T175350Z UID:10001792-1265551200-1265554800@test-dca-mc.nmdca.net SUMMARY:Fighting poverty with photography The Fotokids project DESCRIPTION:Join former Reuters photojournalist Nancy McGirr for a free talk on the Guatemalan-based nonprofit\, Fotokids\, in the museum's John Gaw Meem Room. Fotokids began in 1991 when McGirr taught a small group of children who lived in a Guatemala City dump to document their lives in black-and-white photography. \nNow in its 19th year\, Fotokids has served hundreds of children\, charting a story of how the visual arts can alter even the most profoundly troubled lives. McGirr's talk includes a documentary film and question-and-answer session. \nMcGirr\, an award-winning photojournalist\, covered the wars and political unrest in Central America in the 1980s. Since she began working with children there\, they have won scholarships to school and college\, as well as opportunities to travel\, and have had their work exhibited throughout the world.   By tapping into each child's creativity\, Fotokids helps break the cycle of poverty and lack of opportunity. Some of the children who began photography in a city dump are now university graduates. \nFor more information go to McGirr's Web site: http://www.fotokids.org. You can also see a short video at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=azpveltkU3U. \nOn Friday morning\, Feb. 5\, you can catch an interview with McGirr on Mary Charlotte’s show on KSFR (101.1-FM).

As a special treat\, the Afro-Gospel Praise Experience will rock the house with a mixture of Afro-Latin rhythms and traditional gospel music throughout the program. \nSeating is limited. Tickets to the event\, part of the Telling New Mexico Inaugural Lecture Series\, cost $10 and can be obtained at the shops in the History Museum and Palace of the Governors. You can also purchase tickets online at http://www.museumfoundation.org/tellingnm \n \nThe speakers: \nLandjur Abukusumo\, pastor of Roswell’s Washington Chapel Christian Worship Center and founder and chairman of the Blackdom Memorial Foundation\, which oversees development of the proposed four-acre memorial\, museum\, restaurant and import shop. \nThomas Lark\, curator for the African American Performing Arts Center and Exhibit Hall at Expo New Mexico. \nGregory Allen Waits\, project designer of the Blackdom Memorial Gardens with Lloyd and Associates Architects from Santa Fe. \nLark will focus on the African-American roots of New Mexico\, which date back to early Spanish exploration. The earliest among them include Esteban\, an African slave who was killed during Fray Marcos de Niza’s ill-fated expedition for the Seven Cities of Cibola in 1539. After Mexican independence from Spain in 1828 and the abolishment of slavery in the Southwest\, black fur trappers arrived. In the 1870s\, the town of Dora was settled in the Cimarron Valley by freed slaves. Black cowboys and the fabled Buffalo Soldiers were some of the late 19th-century African-Americans who called New Mexico home. \nAbukusumo will tell of the founding of Blackdom\, a dream that began with Henry Boyer. In 1846\, Boyer came to New Mexico as a U.S. Army wagoneer in one of Gen. Stephen Watts Kearny’s units. He was awed by its wide-open spaces and dreamed of a self-sustaining community – a dream shared by other African-Americans who likewise pursued the establishment of towns throughout the nation during Reconstruction. Henry Boyer’s son\, Frank Boyer\, educated at Morehouse and Fiske Colleges\, decided to take advantage of the 1893 Homestead Act to pursue his own version of that dream. He and a student\, Daniel Keyes\, walked from Pellam\, Ga.\, to New Mexico\, settling near modern-day Dexter\, in October 1900. \nAfter working on ranches\, the two were able to send for their wives and children and began marketing the town to African-American families in Oklahoma and Texas. Families from Mississippi and Ohio soon followed\, and at one point\, the town claimed 20 families of settlers. Besides the hardships of homesteading\, residents faced racial discrimination\, and Blackdom declined. The town was abandoned\, leaving little physical evidence\, but Boyer recreated the experiment south of Las Cruces in a town named Vado\, which survives today. \nWaits will talk about Blackdom Memorial Gardens\, which commemorates the town’s role in shaping the African-American experience in the United States. The Memorial relocates the townsite plat into downtown Roswell as a gathering space with seating areas\, water features\, landscaping and open-air auditorium. \nThe lecture series supports the History Museum's core exhibition as well as the book Telling New Mexico: A New History (Museum of New Mexico Press\, 2009). \nThe full series of lectures\, which is held at 2 p.m. each of the Sundays\, in the History Museum Auditorium: \nNov. 22: Tom Chavez\, former director of the Palace of the Governors and the National Hispanic Cultural Center\, on his current book project\, a history of the Palace of the Governors. \nJan. 31: Thomas Lark\, curator of Expo New Mexico’s African-American Performing Arts Center\, on the history of African-Americans in New Mexico; and the Rev. Landjur Abukusumo\, president of the Blackdom Memorial Foundation\, on the pioneers of the Blackdom community in Roswell.
