The National Museum of Women in the Arts will be holding a Free Community Day on February 17, 2017 with extended hours in celebration of the opening day of our new spring exhibitions.

ABOUT THE EXHIBITIONS:
Border Crossing: Jami Porter Lara explores recent work by Albuquerque-based artist Jami Porter Lara, who hand-builds and pit-fires clay sculptures resembling an icon of modernity—the plastic bottle.

New Ground: The Southwest of Maria Martinez and Laura Gilpin illuminates the midcentury Southwest as a nuanced and dynamic environment in which these two women created art that embodied a distinctively modern aesthetic.
