Art For All: Bringing a Museum to Southwest New Mexico

Help us build a home for art in Silver City! The Southwest Regional Museum of Art & Art Center has hundreds of amazing artworks, and we need your support to give them a home.

Imagine a place where hundreds of original artworks tell captivating stories, where you can explore over 3,000 art books, and discover the magic behind various art forms. We are poised to become a vital educational and cultural institution in Silver City, New Mexico, serving residents of all ages.

While we have an incredible collection and ambitious plans for exhibitions and outreach programs, we are still seeking a permanent home. Our goal is to raise $1.2 million to purchase and transform a building into a state-of-the-art museum.

Your contribution will not only create an unparalleled cultural legacy for Southwest New Mexico but also serve as an economic boon for Grant County through art tourism. Whether you make a significant pledge with naming opportunities or donate via PayPal or check, every bit helps us bring this jewel of the Southwest to life.
