Virtual Programming

Virtual Program Showcase: Finding Ways to Serve the Public In Difficult Times

Around the globe, arts and culture organizations are feeling the debilitating impact of COVID-19. Facing tough financial challenges while trying to remain relevant and engaged with their audiences – often through shuttered doors – has forced the creative sector to invent new ways of inspiring the public. Not surprisingly, we are seeing the creative sector become more resilient, resourceful, and innovative by developing virtual programming that unites families and communities through the arts. We hope you enjoy this tapestry of virtual programming developed by an array of New Mexico’s arts and culture organizations, and follow their links to learn more about New Mexico’s diverse creative community.
