Dear Members, As always, we take this opportunity in the winter issue of Member News to report on the outcome of the Museum of New Mexico Foundation’s prior fiscal year. While fiscal year 2020 (July 1, 2019 to June 30, 2020) was not the year we expected, I am delighted to report that the Foundation met its financial goals for membership, the Annual Fund and designated giving for the Museum of New Mexico system. This is remarkable given the fact that our state museums and historic sites were closed for the last four months of the fiscal year. We achieved these results thanks to the extraordinary support of the Foundation’s trustees, donors and members. We are tremendously grateful to all of you for helping us overcome the challenges of FY2020. Because you value the art, culture and history of New Mexico and folk art traditions worldwide, our important work for the state museum system continues. We are honored to recognize your generosity in this Annual Report around four special themes. Culture is everlasting. This is the guiding principle behind the Here, Now and Always permanent exhibition renovation at the Museum of Indian Arts and Culture. The museum is making steady progress on the project. We look forward to the grand reopening in spring 2022. Folk art connects the world. This was the founding philosophy of the Museum of International Folk Art. Today, it informs the museum’s every activity—from exhibitions and educational programs, to efforts to expand its collections storage capacity, to work-in-progress on a new publication on 20th century New Mexican furniture. Museums will always matter. The New Mexico Museum of Art takes this to heart as it moves forward on construction of the new Vladem Contemporary. Look for this second museum location to open in the Santa Fe Railyard Arts District in 2022. History is our best teacher. This belief is foundational to the recently launched Campaign for New Mexico History. The New Mexico History Museum and New Mexico Historic Sites will benefit from this threeyear, $10 million effort, both public and private, to fund historic preservation and educational programming. The lessons of history are also central to the unique enterprise model and award-winning education programs of the Office of Archaeological Studies.

“We achieved these results thanks to the extraordinary support of the Foundation’s trustees, donors and members.” ­

— Jamie Clements

The Foundation has a 58-year history of supporting our state museum system. With your continued help, that commitment will live on well into the future. Thank you for your steadfast support in this challenging year. From the Foundation family to yours, we wish you a safe and peaceful holiday season. Sincerely,

Jamie Clements President/CEO

Dear Members and Friends, What a difference a year makes. Despite the challenges we have faced at the Museum of New Mexico Foundation, and with your steadfast support, fiscal year 2020 (July 1, 2019 to June 30, 2020) ended in balance. The Foundation continues to be a good steward as we strive to meet this extraordinary test of our times. During these past months, our staff has worked extensively with the museums and historic sites to host virtual events for members, friends, educators and supporters. This technological transformation will continue, bringing our collections and the educational experiences they offer to wider audiences. When our museums and historic sites reopen, please visit them and re-acquaint yourselves with favorite exhibitions and longstanding friends. We have missed the staff at our museums and historic sites, and they have missed us. We have been through unprecedented times. We will face exceptional challenges in coming months. But our future is bright. We will rise to the occasion. Please join us on this journey. Sincerely,

July 1, 2019–June 30, 2020

The Year in Review Foundation Revenues Stand Strong Despite Challenging Fiscal Year Thanks to the unwavering generosity of members and donors, fundraising at the Museum of New Mexico Foundation remained remarkably robust over a fiscal year marked by the unprecedented challenges of COVID-19. Between July 1, 2019 and June 30, 2020, $8.55 million was raised in earned and contributed revenues in support of the four state museums in Santa Fe, eight historic sites across the state and the Office of Archaeological Studies. While demonstrating a slight dip from fiscal year 2018-19’s record high of $10.3 million, FY2020 revenues rank among the top four sums in the Foundation’s history. The stalwart support of Foundation members emphasizes our role as a beacon of hope for New Mexico arts, history and culture. Our continued stewardship of private funding for cutting-edge education and exhibition programs illuminates a path forward for our 13 partner institutions, leading to brighter days ahead. “The Museum of New Mexico Foundation is not experiencing an existential crisis,” says Foundation President/ CEO Jamie Clements. “We’re standing strong and looking to the future.”

Steady Support by the Numbers Revenues in FY2020 were generated from a diverse array of supporters who showed unwavering loyalty to the Foundation’s mission. Nearly 8,000 households comprising 16,000 members brought $1.7 million to the table this year—a combination of Annual Fund gifts and five membership programs, including general membership, The Circles, Circles Explorers, Business Council and Corporate Partners. Grants, endowments, event fundraisers and individual gifts reached $2.99 million in division giving. These funds shore up a set of education and outreach programs that saw us through a year like no other, as staff across divisions pivoted from in-person models to virtual initiatives that served more than 40,000 students statewide. Division giving enabled groundbreaking research at the Office of Archaeological Studies, as well as work on physical

exhibitions before the March closure of our museums and historic sites.

FY2020: A Look Back

The combined contributed revenues supported the execution of countless online exhibitions, lectures, panel discussions and collection showcases viewed by captive audiences in New Mexico and beyond, expanding the creative reach of our cultural partners to a global level.

Museum of New Mexico Foundation $8.55 million in revenues.

Meanwhile, the Foundation’s online retail website— shopmuseum.org—took center stage as the four Museum Shops closed for much of the fiscal year, generating a stillimpressive $2.4 million in gross sales. Another $133,000 came from royalties of the Foundation’s Licensing program.

Ambitious plans for historic preservation and educational programming at the New Mexico History Museum and New Mexico Historic Sites will benefit as this statewide campaign moves forward. During this time of crisis, long-range giving proved more important than ever to the long-term goals of the Foundation. Legacy Society contributions added up to more than $908,000 in realized gifts.

Finally, the essential support services we provide for our 13 cultural partners continue unchecked by the pandemic. These services encompass oversight of 32 endowments valued at more than $23 million, operation of the Museum Shops and retail website, advocacy for funding from the New Mexico State Legislature, and the activities of the membership program.

Museum of Indian Arts and Culture Fiscal Year Feats

$353,000

received in grants

Culture is everlasting The Long View of a Short Year

$126,000

Museum of Indian Arts and Culture Executive Director Della Warrior says the downtime that resulted from the museum’s temporary closure at the end of fiscal year 2020 (July 1, 2019 to June 30, 2020) is going to pay off down the road.

$48,000

“We’ve had time to pull some of this stuff together. We’ve been working on a lot of grants since the pandemic began,” Warrior says. They include a $60,000 COVID-19 emergency grant from the Henry Luce Foundation to support the creation of digital content and 2021 exhibitions.

In addition to that successful grant and other in-process initiatives, the Museum of New Mexico Foundation raised an impressive total of $1,260,000 during FY2020 for exhibitions and education at the museum. A significant portion of those dollars support the ongoing renovation of the permanent exhibition Here, Now and Always, an upgrade of the 1997 installation that presents new approaches to community-based education and exhibition presentation. Though work on the renovation was halted by the COVID-19 pandemic, Warrior says the de-installation of Here, Now and Always began again in earnest this fall. Construction will follow with a grand re-opening scheduled for spring 2022. “On top of the nearly $1.5 million raised in private donations for the Here, Now and Always renovation project, FY2020 boosted total grant funding for the project to $510,000,” says Jamie Clements, Museum of New Mexico Foundation President/CEO. “This has put us on track for a spring 2022 reopening.”

“The de-installation of Here, Now and Always began again in earnest this fall.” Silver Linings Another silver lining in fiscal year fundraising came with the very first virtual Native Treasures auction in June. The $65,000 in proceeds from the auction of Native jewelry, paintings, pottery and artwork marked an auspicious beginning for the museum’s online funding ventures, which continued in late October with a virtual Native Treasures Collectors’ Sale. 6 museumfoundation.org

With the shutdown of the 2020 Indian Market and the Palace of the Governors Native American Artisans Portal Program, the online Native Treasures events provided Native artists and artisans with a much-needed sales boost. Due to the COVID-19 slowdown, the 2020 Museum of Indian Arts and Culture Living Treasure awardee, Jemez Pueblo potter Kathleen Wall, will continue her tenure with a one-year extension of the honor in 2021. Meanwhile, costly installation work on Clearly Indigenous: Native Visions Reimagined in Glass, an exhibition of Native glass art scheduled to open in spring 2021, has also benefitted from private funding. The exhibition is set to be the centerpiece of the museum’s 2021 programming.

Highlights included virtual, museum-based concerts with Indigenous musicians, including G Precious and Innastate, broadcast live by the Department of Cultural Affairs and archived online. Another standout project was the Summer Coloring Book (download it on the museum website’s Education Resources page), which features artwork from Native artists Jason Garcia (Santa Clara Pueblo), Abel Nash (Hopi) and Isaac Murdoch (Serpent River First Nation).

“We’re very excited. It’s going to be beautiful,” says Warrior.

In all, despite the damper of COVID-19, fundraising only saw a slight dip during FY2020. The staying power of the museum’s endowment points to a crystalline path ahead for the future of the museum and its array of promising exhibitions and educational initiatives.

Private gifts funded a lineup of other online initiatives in FY2020, from virtual exhibitions to a database of artist profiles to interactive lectures and panel discussions. These web-based offerings presented new ways for the museum to expand its goals of increasing appreciation of Native arts and culture.

Folk art connects the world A Year of Transformation

Thanks to a long history of stewardship and strong personal relationships at the Museum of International Folk Art, and in spite of the challenges of the COVID-19 pandemic, fiscal year 2020 (July 1, 2019 to June 30, 2020) ended on a resilient note of fiscal and programmatic achievement. The Museum of New Mexico Foundation raised a total of $617,000 for the museum’s exhibitions and education programs, along with other initiatives, in FY2020. During the pre-pandemic months of the fiscal year, museum guests enjoyed popular in-person exhibitions, including Alexander Girard: A Designer’s Universe, a collaboration with Germany’s Vitra Design Museum. This was complemented by a well-attended symposium on Girard’s design and collecting legacy. “The great success of the exhibition and this terrific conference advanced scholarship and brought our Girard Wing into focus,” says Museum of International Folk Art Executive Director Khristaan Villela. As a result, the Girard Wing benefited from $79,000 in funding to refresh its exhibition spaces. While the museum fell silent in the final months of FY2020, a creative clamor ensued in the community for the museum’s cultural and educational offerings. Working from home, museum staff kept folk art lovers connected through an ambitious calendar of online experiences. “The museum did an extraordinary job of moving its offerings online,” says Jamie Clements, President/CEO of the Museum of New Mexico Foundation, which provided private funding to support online education initiatives. “These virtual activities will certainly become a permanent part of the museum’s outreach to the world.”

“We have a long history of scholarly and public interest in New Mexico furniture.” Reaching Out to the World The museum’s Facebook page hosted four concert broadcasts, while its website launched the Docent’s Choice blog, in which volunteer docents discuss favorite collections objects. A brand new museum YouTube channel aired nearly 60 videos, including a 360-degree virtual tour of the

In another notable expression of their commitment to their constituents, especially youth, museum educators created and distributed more than 4,000 Folk Art To Go kits. They also introduced and provided teachers with new bilingual lesson plans.

Furthering New Mexican Furniture Fiscal year 2020 provided other reasons to look ahead, including an exciting museum partnership on a new book on 20th century New Mexican furniture. Written by Carmella Padilla with photography by Jack Parsons and selected essays by Robin Farwell Gavin, the museum’s curator of Spanish Colonial art from 1987 to 2003, the project honors the legacy of Murdoch Finlayson, a trader, preservationist and collaborator on the project before his death in 2018. The book explores a century of New Mexican furniture, from 1920 to 2020, in all its substance and style: as practiced in the hands of its makers, as promoted through

schools and social movements, as admired as collectible art. Several items from the museum’s furniture collection are featured. “We have a long history of scholarly and public interest in New Mexico furniture, and this project is an opportunity to raise awareness of our furniture collections,” Villela says. “Eventually, we would like to see our furniture storage vaults completely renovated to continue to preserve this artistic legacy.” An independent fundraising initiative by Padilla and her team has generated significant support for the project, attracting funding from 40 private donors (see page 26) to date. The Museum of New Mexico Foundation is serving as fiscal agent in this unique public-private partnership.

History is our best teacher A Year of Change

Fiscal year 2020 (July 1, 2019 to June 30, 2020) ushered in a season of renewal at the New Mexico History Museum. Soon after the permanent appointment of Billy Garrett as the museum’s executive director was announced in March, the COVID-19 pandemic closed the museum for the final four months of the fiscal year. Renovations in progress at the Palace of the Governors were slowed. Plaza visitors were struck by the sight of a vacant portal on Palace Avenue, empty of Native artist vendors. But behind the scenes, plenty of work was underway. “The months that we have been closed has given the museum the chance to take a hard look at our plans for the future,” Garrett says. “This is a time of change for the New Mexico History Museum.” Despite the challenges, private giving for the museum still topped out at $226,000 in FY2020. And though the pandemic temporarily postponed the launch of the Campaign for New Mexico History, which will benefit both the History Museum and New Mexico Historic Sites, campaign planners kept busy during the shutdown. “We developed our plans and crafted the language we need to convey the importance of revitalizing and renewing New Mexico history,” says Dennis O’Toole, Museum of New Mexico Foundation trustee and campaign cabinet member. “The History Museum has a robust list of needs for its buildings, historic preservation work and the renewal of the Palace of the Governors.”

“We can use history to better understand how we got to current situations, to look for ideas and inspiration about moving forward.” Keeping People Connected The museum, with private funding support from the Foundation, innovated during the shutdown. Forced to stay at home, museum staff turned to virtual exhibitions, a new emphasis on social media engagement and other creative ideas to keep people connected during the closure.

Highlights of those initiatives include:

Gaining Steam

• The debut of a new website—nmhistorymuseum.org —where visitors engage in the museum’s diverse collections, programs and exhibitions, including virtual tours of past and current installations.

As the page turned to the new fiscal year, the $10 million Campaign for New Mexico History gained steam. The outlook is promising, to date generating $3 million in contributions, including $600,000 in private giving and $2.3 million in public funds.

• The reinvigoration of the popular 2017-18 exhibition Voices of Counterculture in the Southwest, with a 3-D virtual tour and new curator interviews. These online bonuses significantly expand the reach of the original show. A recording with guest curator Jack Loeffler is at museumfounda­tion.org/online-event-recordings. • Daily Facebook postings of fascinating historic photographs from the Palace of the Governors collection, with insights and information from curators, increase engagement with history lovers in New Mexico and beyond. • The Quarantine Diaries Collection, spearheaded by the Fray Angélico Chávez History Library, gather the accounts of New Mexicans in quarantine all over the state. Poems, pictures and diary entries about pandemic life provide a valuable historical record.

“We’ve got a ways to go, but this campaign is on track to bring much needed funding for exhibitions and educational programs at the New Mexico History Museum, including the Palace of the Governors,” says Museum of New Mexico Foundation President/CEO Jamie Clements. Looking to the future, Garrett says it’s important to look back at the pandemic as offering new reasons why history matters more than ever. “We can use history to better understand how we got to current situations, to look for ideas and inspiration about moving forward, and to help put today’s situation in perspective,” he says.

Museums will always matter A Year of Milestones

Mark A. White, the new executive director of the New Mexico Museum of Art, has committed to memory what attorney Frank Springer said at the museum’s opening more than a century ago. “While the past may teach us, it is the future that calls and beckons us,” Springer told a crowd at the dedication of the 1917 museum building. At the close of fiscal year 2020 (July 1, 2019 to June 30, 2020), with construction in progress on the Vladem Contemporary building in the Railyard, the call for the future of the museum is upon us. With two buildings representing a unified vision, White says the institution is setting its sights on providing a “forum for the ongoing dialogue regarding where we come from, what we are, and where we’re going.” White’s appointment to the museum directorship was announced in April, weeks after the building closed to the public due to COVID-19. Despite the slowdown, the Museum of New Mexico Foundation raised $505,000 for the art museum in FY2020. And as the Centennial Campaign reached its capital funding goal, work began on the next goal, says Museum of New Mexico Foundation President/CEO Jamie Clements. “A major milestone for the Museum of Art in FY2020 was the completion of the $12.5 million Centennial Campaign,” says Clements. “With the capital funds in hand to construct the Vladem Contemporary, we now look to raise over $1 million in the next two years to support exhibition development and educational programs at the 1917 building on the Plaza as well as during the Vladem’s 2022 inaugural year.”

“What matters more than ever is the collection and the public engagement with it.” Considering the Collection During the closure of the downtown Museum of Art, head of curatorial affairs Merry Scully declared, “What matters more than ever is the collection and the public engagement with it.” That philosophy was translated by museum staff into participation in the #NMTwinning competition, in which social media users presented their own interpretations of artworks in the museum’s collection.

Curators also assembled a series of virtual exhibitions curated around timely themes, with artworks crowdsourced from artists on social media, or taken and re-contextualized from the collection. The Solitary Figure, organized by 20th century art curator Christian Waguespack in May, capitalized on paintings in the collection that spoke to newfound feelings of isolation. Waguespack described it this way, “In this time of uncertainty we may choose to embrace the gifts that isolation brings, with the realization that, unlike these paintings, our own instances of peace and self-reflection are all too fleeting.” Waguespack now prepares to unveil A Fiery Light: Will Shuster’s New Mexico in 2021. The show celebrates the centennial of the influential artist’s arrival in New Mexico in 1920. The exhibition explores Shuster’s friendship with John Sloan and his collaboration with Gustave Baumann to create the ultimate Santa Fe boogeyman, Zozobra. Waguespack recently discussed the exhibition in front of an online audience. Hear a recording of his talk at museumfoundation.org/online-event-recordings.

Fueling Private Support Going into 2021, other areas of museum work that need private support are heating up. The Foundation is closing in on its $40,800 goal to prepare the Beaumont Newhall Library collection for eventual installation at the downtown museum building. The library’s 3,500 photography books and catalogues will anchor a museum research and study center for photography. Finally with additional exhibition support, museum visitors have two compelling new shows to look forward to: Breath Taking, a collection of works devoted to the act of breathing, and the much-anticipated Southwest Rising: Contemporary Art and the Legacy of Elaine Horwitch.

When it came to connecting would-be visitors with the New Mexico Historic Sites during the COVID-19 shutdown at the end of fiscal year 2020 (July 1, 2019 to June 30, 2020), it’s hard to see how site staff could have handled the situation any better.

“Our main job has always been interacting with people, and if we can’t do that face to face, we’re going to do it online,” says Matthew Barbour, manager at Coronado and Jemez historic sites. Barbour says the Our Fair New Mexico virtual concert filmed live at Jemez on May 6, featuring Instructional Coordinator Marlon Magdalena and his array of flutes, has since been viewed by more than 40,000 people.

A safety net of public-private support—$127,000 raised by the Museum of New Mexico Foundation in FY2020 —shored up the sites. A slew of exciting new hires also expanded their programmatic potential. Two new managers, Ethan Ortega and Wesley Meiss, joined the teams at Los Luceros and Lincoln/Fort Stanton, respectively, in January. Before that, in July 2019, Tim Roberts and Kristine Navarro-McElhany were named deputy directors of the division. “Now that we are fully staffed with two skilled professionals positioned as deputy directors, New Mexico Historic Sites will see direct benefit in our fiscal and facilities management,” Patrick Moore, New Mexico Historic Sites executive director, said at the time of their appointments.

“We want to be engaging with people, and we found great means to do that during the shutdown.” Expanding Stories of Place Managers are looking to 2021 to continue improvements that will bolster the valuable stories imparted by each place. Highlights include digital tours available via smartphone to enhance either virtual or in-person

visits, as well as the much-anticipated interactive remodel of the main exhibition at the Bosque Redondo Memorial. In September, a Save America’s Treasures grant of $451,252 was awarded to the site by the Historic Preservation Fund of the National Park Service, Department of the Interior. That grant was matched by the Foundation and the State of New Mexico to total $1.16 million. This support will fund the preservation and stabilization of the Los Luceros Hacienda and adjacent storehouse. Los Luceros manager Ethan Ortega says the restoration of the storehouse, which has not been previously open to the public, offers an opportunity to dig into the lives of the Norteños who cared for the historic property. “It tells the stories of the people who were living here every day during the 1920s, ’30s, ’40s,” he says. After a year marked by the unexpected success and expansive reach of their virtual offerings, site staff are eager to continue connecting with their constituents. “We want to be engaging with people, and we found great means to do that during the shutdown,” says Barbour.

With the recent launch of the $10 million Campaign for New Mexico History, which benefits both New Mexico Historic Sites and the New Mexico History Museum, site staff are looking to the campaign to help strengthen their role in educating the public about the state’s rich historic landscape. To date, the campaign has attracted $3 million in contributions, including $600,000 in private giving and $2.3 million in public funds. “The Campaign for New Mexico History is the Foundation’s first-ever statewide fundraising campaign,” says Foundation President/CEO Jamie Clements. “This is an exciting opportunity to raise significant funds for all eight historic sites throughout New Mexico.”

History is our best teacher A Year of Innovation

In the face of a global pandemic, fiscal year 2020 (July 1, 2019 to June 30, 2020) proved a challenge at the Office of Archaeological Studies. During this time, however, archaeologist-educators embraced innovation, building on the strengths of past success while adapting to a new and uncertain future. While hands-on experiences and face-to-face interactions have been hallmarks of the Office’s award-winning educational outreach program for decades, these strengths were abruptly undercut by the risk of COVID-19 contagion. The shift to providing curriculum support for teachers and parents had already started, but circumstances forced a complete pivot. By designing and expanding curriculum to focus on topical learning modules, either distributed to families or downloaded from the web, the team implemented hundreds of educational programs statewide in the final months of FY2020. “The relationships forged with the Community Educators Network have been key,” says Office of Archaeological Studies Director Eric Blinman, referencing the partnership with other nonprofit and educational leaders in the Santa Fe area. Ethnobotanist Mollie Toll’s experience in the network and the public school system was central to the success of adapting to new models. In addition to virtual classroom visits and Project Archaeology initiatives, the creation and distribution of stand-alone activity kits supported the hands-on and self-directed learning that parents and teachers need. Grant support from the Museum of New Mexico Foundation was instrumental in ensuring quality programming, Blinman says. Together with individual donor gifts of $124,000, $36,000 was raised for education. After the close of the fiscal year, additional funding through a multi-year cooperative agreement with the Bureau of Land Management was announced. “Moving into the next several years, we will have $32,000 in federal funds,” Blinman says of that partnership. “It is excellent news.”

Serving Clients Statewide The Office of Archaeological Studies is a not-for-profit, client-based enterprise, carrying on a tradition that began in 1952. Twenty-seven new projects were initiated in FY2020, supporting clients through plans, permits, field work, analyses and reporting. Building construction projects (including the future Vladem Contemporary), roadways, pipelines, fiber-optic installations and electrical utilities were all served by staff archaeologists. Two projects span multiple fiscal years while three have an estimated service value of more than $100,000. 16 museumfoundation.org

Friends of Archaeology continued their crucial support for non-client activities. Their programs (before pandemic restrictions) generated $56,000 in income, covering both the costs of fundraising and providing direct support for the Office’s staff functions. Often underappreciated is the Friends’ role in building the support that benefits valuable work in our research laboratories. The Osteology Laboratory is home to a comprehensive computerized database of skeletal observations on age, sex, and genetic and biomechanical markers and pathologies. This resource is used by governmental and university research projects in the United States and beyond. The Archaeomagnetic Dating Laboratory continues its multi-year collaboration with the Scripps Institution of Oceanography, adding more than 5,000 magnetic field observations to the worldwide geomagnetic database. This grant-funded research collaboration will improve archaeomagnetic dating and contribute useful data to geomagnetic modeling. The Office’s diverse and talented staff of 14, including two Native American archaeologists, is at the heart of the small

organization’s big success. These dedicated experts serve state, tribal, federal and private entities with services and apply their knowledge to research and education as well. To continue providing important archaeological information for future generations, Blinman and his team rely on a generous and complex funding network, of which the Museum of New Mexico Foundation is no small part. “The dedication of the Office of Archaeological Studies to education and research is incredible as these privately funded programs must live side by side with contract archaeological work,” says Jamie Clements, Foundation President/CEO. “Equally dedicated are the donors who support these efforts. We are happy to help make their work possible.”

Notable News and Events At Your Fingertips The Foundation Digital Membership Card The Museum of New Mexico Foundation’s new digital membership card program, set to launch in early 2021, will put the benefits of membership— from free entry to the museums and historic sites to a 10% discount at the Museum Shops and Museum Hill Café—at your fingertips.

Grants Fuel FY2020 Over a dozen institutional funders—private, state and federal—awarded grants totaling more than $722,500 in FY2020 (July 1, 2019 to June 30, 2020) to divisions supported by the Museum of New Mexico Foundation. Here are just a few highlights: The New Mexico Museum of Art received a very generous grant from the Wyncote Foundation to restore the newly-named Frederick R. Haas pipe organ in the museum’s Saint Francis Auditorium. An anonymous donor made a significant award to the Museum of Indian Arts and Culture to support the revitalization of its signature permanent exhibition Here, Now and Always. Barbro Osher Pro Suecia Foundation provided key funds for the planning and implementation of the exhibition Dressing with Purpose: Belonging and Resistance in Scandinavia at the Museum of International Folk Art. The BNSF Railway Foundation awarded the New Mexico History Museum a grant for Working on the Railroad, an exhibition celebrating nearly 100 years of the state’s railroad history. The Office of Archaeological Studies received a grant from the Santa Fe Community Foundation for its award-winning educational outreach program. PHOTOS ©

The Museum of New Mexico Foundation thanks these and all of our institutional funders for their generous support of the Museum of New Mexico system. museumfoundation.org

“A digital membership card gives members a convenient way to take advantage of your favorite member benefits,” says Mariann Lovato, the Foundation’s director of membership and communications. “Digital cards will allow the Foundation to better serve our members, with plans in the works to offer a green option for paperless communication and contactless entry at the museums and historic sites.” Digital membership cards will be sent to all active members via email with a link to download your new cards to Apple Wallet on iPhone or Wallet Pass on Android devices. To provide your current email address, visit: www.museumfoundation.org/member-help/. The cards are the first of many digital enhancements to come from the Foundation. In the coming months, additional digital offerings will provide an enriched membership experience. For questions or help, email membership@museumfoundation.org


Corporate Partner Spotlight Enterprise Bank & Trust Increasing Community Support and Access It might have been easy for Enterprise Bank & Trust to pull back from community sponsorships after the 2019 merger of Enterprise Financial Services Corp with Trinity Capital Corporation (the holding company for the former Los Alamos National Bank). Instead, Enterprise Bank & Trust has increased its community commitments in Santa Fe, Los Alamos and Albuquerque. In 2019, the bank’s investments in nonprofit organizations rose 33 percent from Los Alamos National Bank’s historical annual contributions. That’s in addition to the bank’s steadfast support of the Museum of New Mexico Foundation at the $5,000 corporate partner level for many years. “As a community bank, we partner with organizations that we know have a strong impact in our area,” says Dion Silva, regional president of Enterprise Bank & Trust. Enterprise Bank & Trust’s regional vice president Dion Silva believes in supporting the local arts and culture community. The Foundation thanks the bank’s generous support through their corporate partnership. Photo courtesy Dion Silva.

Indeed, along with the Foundation, Enterprise’s charitable giving supports a wide variety of organizations every year, including the Lensic Performing Arts Center, Performance Santa Fe and the Santa Fe Children’s Museum. Silva explains that arts and culture are essential to a strong community. “The arts and culture are our history. They are, in essence, our DNA,” he says. Silva says he loves to see associates and employees take the free museum and event tickets offered by the bank’s partnership with the Foundation and other cultural institutions.

“As a community bank, we partner with organizations that we know have a strong impact in our area.” “When we get access to these tickets, we’re able to share those with an associate or client who might not otherwise have that access,” Silva says. “Getting that entry to culture might change their awareness or spark an interest in the arts. Someday, maybe they’ll become donors, too.” Enterprise Bank & Trust is a member of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation.

The Foundation thanks and recognizes its Corporate Partners for their generous support.

Artist Spotlight: Gustave Baumann One of the leading figures in the color woodcut revival in America, Gustave Baumann’s (1881-1971) woodblock prints speak to the heart of simplicity. Baumann was the ultimate craftsman, as he loved the feel of the wood, the tool and the handmade paper he selected. Bring home a piece of his beloved craft with our collection of Baumann prints, cards, calendars and more.
