More About The Museum of New Mexico Foundation
Special initiatives over the years have consisted mainly of capital campaigns for museum expansion, from the Amy Rose Bloch wing added to the Museum of Indian Arts and Culture in the late 1980s to the development of Milner Plaza on Museum Hill in the early 2000s, from the Shape the Future campaign to build out exhibitions at the New Mexico History Museum in the late 2000s to the recent Centennial Campaign for the New Mexico Museum of Art to expand into the Vladem Contemporary in Santa Fe’s Railyard Arts District.
