Hi Everyone,

As a gift from the NM Department of Cultural Affairs (DCA), six state museums will offer free admission on Christmas Eve, Tuesday, Dec. 24, 2024, from 10 a.m. to 12 p.m. (the National Hispanic Cultural Center Art Museum in Albuquerque; NM Farm & Ranch Heritage Museum in Las Cruces; and Museum of Indian Arts & Culture, Museum of International Folk Art, NM History Museum, and NM Museum of Art in Santa Fe). Divisions normally closed on Tuesdays will remain closed (NM Museum of Natural History & Science in Albuquerque, NM Museum of Space History in Alamogordo, and all NM Historic Sites). Admissions staff will issue refunds for tickets already purchased online for Tuesday, December 24.

DCA offices and facilities will close at noon on Tuesday, Dec. 24, 2024, so staff may enjoy time with their loved ones.

All state museums and historic sites will close for the state holidays on Dec. 25, 2024, and January 1, 2025, reopening the following day for the enjoyment of all.
