With the upcoming 60th anniversary of the Millicent Rogers Museum, there is a sense of celebration in the air. "We are doing a number of shows that go along with our mission to promote and represent local artists," said Executive Director Caroline Jean Fernald.
As part of the ongoing anniversary events, the museum will host its fourth annual Taos Pueblo Artists Winter Showcase. The exhibition and sale event opens with a reception Friday (March 11), 5:307 p.m., and then continues during regular hours through Sunday (March 13). The museum is located at 1504 Millicent Rogers Road, four miles north of Taos Plaza via Paseo del Pueblo Norte in El Prado. The museum's permanent galleries will be open to the public during the showcase.
"We are honored to partner with Taos Pueblo Tourism to welcome once again the Taos Pueblo artists to the museum," Fernald said. "This is a very unique show, with original pieces available for purchase directly from the artists. Visitors will have the opportunity to talk to them and find out more about their pieces and techniques." The museum has had a longstandingrelationship with Taos Pueblo.
