Cultural historian and author Carmella Padilla joins "Conversations Different" to discuss the Nuevo Mexicano Heritage Arts Museum’s new exhibit — 100 Years of Collecting • 100 Years of Connecting. The exhibit focuses on the Spanish Colonial art forms that have long represented the cultures and people of Northern New Mexico, as well as their connections to the Spanish Colonial world.
Padilla shares the importance of the exhibit and what visitors could expect, presents the history of the Spanish Colonial Arts Society, founded to preserve the art forms of Spanish Colonial New Mexico, and discusses key figures and stories that have had an important role in the history of both the society and the museum. The museum originally opened as the Museum of Spanish Colonial Art in 2002 but changed its name in 2024 to the Nuevo Mexicano Heritage Arts Museum.
