The Albuquerque Art Museum: A week of possibilities. Free Admission Days, New Exhibits, Salsa Under the Stars!,

This week bring some culture into summer with The Albuquerque Art History Museum!

The Albuquerque Art Museum has a great week planned for you!  A new exhibit started on June 10th.  The Art from the Ancient Americas will showcase over 100 examples of art from Mexico to Chile.  You can see great examples of Mayan, Aztec, Olmec, Nazca, and Colima Art in precious metals and jade.  There is most likely a separate fee for the special exhibit.
The museum is closed Monday.  But, here is a overview of what you can do this week.

See my link below for the museum website and details:

• The Albuquerque Museum is very affordable.  Admission is $3 to $1. 
• Normal Admission to the museum is free until Labor Day to all active military personnel and five members of their immediate family through the Blue Star Museum Program. 
• Every third Thursday night of the month is free, and this Thursday (June 21st)  is the third Thursday of the month. So, you can get your culture on from 5:30 to 8:00pm for free.  Just remember that sometimes the museum charges separately for a special exhibit, and the website does not state how much.  
• Salsa Under The Stars presented by the NM Jazz Workshop is Friday Night.  Why not plan a date? Havana Son will fill the night with some Salsa, Merenge, Son, Cha Cha, Boleros, Cumbia, and few other dances to get your blood pumping.  There is a full bar and food to purchase too.  Adults are $13 and students with ID are $11.  I wouldn't take the kids, but sometimes Mama needs a night out!  See the link for ticket info and a summer schedule:http://www.nmjazz.org/Salsa_Under_The_Stars_1.aspx
• This Saturday from 1:00pm to 2:30 pm there is a Family Art Workshop; your children can get busy with a fun art project.  This is free with regular admission.
• Every Sunday is free for regular admission from 9am to 1pm.  Remember, there might be a separate fee for special exhibits.

I hope I inspired you to try something new!  Why not add some cultural education to your child's life this week?  Why not plan a date and cumbia with your honey on a Friday night?   Thanks for reading and sharing!

Family Blessings,
