Explore New Mexico Culture Through DCA Online

DCA News:

Explore the latest online programming from the New Mexico Department of Cultural Affairs (DCA).

Discover the state’s unique blend of cultures online through its museums, historic sites and cultural institutions.

Programs this week include:

  • Take a virtual ranger tour of Jemez Historic Site and discover the unique histories and cultures of the Jemez Valley. The online field trip includes stops at the historic site’s welcome center, remains of the ancient village of Giusewa, plaza, camposanto, and original mission church. There’s also an option to learn more from a staff member through voice and video calls. Younger viewers can download the Jemez Historic Site Junior Ranger activity book and complete it using information found on the virtual tour.
  • The latest episode of the podcast “La Hilacha: Words and Memories,” produced by the History and Literary Arts program at the National Hispanic Cultural Center, features a conversation with Drs. Sheryl Felecia Means and Eleuterio Santiago-Diaz, both of the University of New Mexico. Listen as they discuss Afro-Latinx communities in Latin American and the United States, and address Afro-Latinx literature, ethnic studies, race, identity, Black History Month, and other topics.
  • Did you know that the Nob Hill Business Center was the first shopping center in Albuquerque? Learn about this moderne-style building and other structures across the state listed in the National Register of Historic Places through weekly posts on the Historic Preservation Division Facebook page.
