ADVISORY: Last Chance - Call for Zozobra Objects for NM History Museum Exhibit

March 30, 2 - 4 p.m. and April 1, 10 a.m. - noon.

Hi Everyone,

The New Mexico History Museum (NMHM) is offering two more drop-in opportunities for New Mexicans to share their Zozobra memories and mementos.

What: The tradition of Zozobra turns 100 this August and NMHM is telling this ten-decade story. The Museum wants to see the community’s favorite Zozobra memories to consider for inclusion in this exhibition. Community members can bring materials like vintage merch, goofy family movies, or other memorabilia directly to NMHM on Lincoln Street to have them examined and photographed on-site. Objects that are chosen for the exhibition will be on loan to NMHM for the duration of the exhibition.

Who: New Mexico History Museum and Kiwanis Club of Santa Fe

When: Saturday, March 30, 2 – 4 p.m and Monday, April 1, 10 a.m. – 12 p.m. Can’t make it to the drop-in session? Submit your entry online at https://burnzozobra.com/lend/ .

Where: NMHM, 113 Lincoln Ave., Santa Fe, NM 87501

Questions? E-mail DCA-HistoryCollections@state.nm.us directly.
