A first visit to a museum. A new way to express an idea. A classroom project that sparks curiosity. A family making something together.

Harwood Education creates opportunities for students, families, teachers and community members to experience the transformative power of art.

Your support helps make those experiences possible.

Now through the end of October, two generous donors will match each gift to Thrive Through Art.

Thanks to this support your impact will be tripled!

Give today and help us reach our $20,000 goal by October 31.

Join us this Saturday for an intimate performance from exhibiting artists Joanna Keane Lopez & Santino Gonzales. We are absolutely honored to have these artists perform at the Arthur Bell Auditorium at Harwood Museum. Buy your tickets on our website now or at the door (if we don't sell out!).

"Noche Blanca" is an ongoing music project of Joanna Keane Lopez and collaboration with W.R. Cook. The songs are intuitive melodies and incantations drawn from the night, the moon, the stars, murder ballads, drunkenness, loss and love.

"Immaculate Constellation," is a live performance by Santino Gonzales where music, memory, and time blur. Through layers of ambient guitar, field recordings, messages from loved ones, and illuminated by archival home video, Tino invites listeners to tune-in closely.

Saturday October 3, 2026
6:30 pm
$20 for Harwood Members/ Students / Artists
$25 General Admission

Three Governor’s Award recipients. One Harwood collection.

The New Mexico Governor’s Awards for Excellence in the Arts celebrate the artists and arts advocates who have made a lasting impact on our state’s creative landscape.

At Harwood Museum of Art, we’re proud to have the work of three Governor’s Award recipients in our collection: Bill Barrett, Eli Levin, and Sam Scott.

From Barrett’s sculpture to Levin’s painting in the Arthur Bell Auditorium, to Scott’s work in the museum’s collection, their contributions are part of the artistic legacy preserved and shared here at Harwood.

As we celebrate this year’s Governor’s Award honorees, we’re also celebrating the artists whose work continues to connect New Mexico’s past, present, and future.

While these works are not all currently on view at the museum please browse our online collection at harwoodmuseum.org/art/collections/
