Homecoming Open House

Celebrate Homecoming with the UNM Art Museum! UNMAM is partnering with the Maxwell Museum of Anthropology and Tamarind Institute to offer extended hours on Friday, November 5th from 5:00 – 7:00 PM. Join us to reconnect with some of the best resources on campus.

What’s on view?

At the UNM Art Museum

Visionary Modern: Raymond Jonson Trilogies, Cycles, and Portraits surveys the long career of Raymond Jonson (1891-1982) and will be on display at the UNM Art Museum. Jonson’s legacy at UNM is threefold: as an educator, a curator, and a mentor around whom a strong community of artists was built in Albuquerque.

This year’s special Homecoming poster features Red Rocks, Colorado by Raymond Jonson. Stop by to view the work of Raymond Jonson in-person, including the piece that inspired the 2021 Homecoming poster.

You can pre-order prints of the poster here.

At the Maxwell Museum of Anthropology

Visit the permanent exhibitions and three recently opened temporary exhibitions, Heartbreak: A Love Letter to the Lost National Museum of Brazil, Indigenous Women: Border Matters, and From the Headwaters to the Mouth: Amazonian Collections in the Maxwell Museum.
