Women’s Board of the Museum of New Mexico

Preserving History, Supporting the Future

The Museum of New Mexico Women’s Board is dedicated to supporting the Museum of New Mexico system—13 institutions in all—through its mission to celebrate, preserve, and share the rich art, culture and history of New Mexico and folk art traditions worldwide.

History

Founded in 1950, the Women’s Board was established by a passionate group of volunteers who recognized the need for a dedicated network to support the Museum of New Mexico. Over the decades, the Board has grown into a dynamic group of individuals united by a shared love for New Mexico’s unique heritage and a commitment to ensuring its legacy endures for generations to come.

The Women’s Board has played a pivotal role in fundraising, advocacy and community engagement. Its members have contributed to countless projects, from exhibit enhancements to educational programs, helping the Museum of New Mexico system flourish as a cornerstone of cultural and historical preservation in the Southwest.

About

The Women’s Board actively supports the Museum of New Mexico Foundation by helping organize and host events enjoyed by members and the community at the Museum of Indian Arts and Culture, Museum of International Folk Art, New Mexico Museum of Art/Vladem Contemporary and the New Mexico History Museum/Palace of the Governors, helping promote awareness and engagement at our museums.

Women’s Board Endowment Fund

Recently the Women’s Board established an Endowment Fund to provide sustainable, long-term support for the Museum of New Mexico system.
