For Students
your museum
The University of New Mexico Art Museum is dedicated to advanced learning and creating connections, both in and outside of the University community. As a teaching museum, we are committed to offering students professional development and mentorship opportunities as well as access to the largest collection of artwork in New Mexico. UNMAM offers entry at no cost, educational programming, and up-close access to historically significant artworks alongside the works of exciting, emergent artists.
We’d love to see you for a few minutes between classes or when you’re looking for a quiet place to recharge. We hope that your museum experience will inspire you to return again throughout your studies and after your graduation. Outside of a visit to UNMAM, we offer a variety of ways for UNM students to connect to the museum, its collection, and its staff. This page will be your go-to guide for opportunities and experiences at UNMAM, along with a dedicated space to celebrate the accomplishments of you and your fellow Lobos. During your time at the University of New Mexico, the UNM Art Museum is your museum.
Job Opportunities
We currently do not have any openings for student positions at the UNM Art Museum. If you would like to discuss future opportunities please reach out to Ethan Aronson at aronsone@unm.edu.
Student Advisory Council
Formerly known as the UNM Art Museum Student Advisory Board, the Student Advisory Council is a student group for those who are interested in art, museums, gaining professional development and mentorship in the museum field. It is a group of dedicated students who will serve as a consultative and collaborative body at UNMAM.

Student Advisory Council Spring 2024
During the spring of 2024 SAC continued experimenting, collaborating, and researching together, as the group had their sights set on an exciting new project. From January to May students in SAC worked to create a 24 page zine titled, UNM ART MUSE/ZINE.
Student Advisory Council Fall 2024
Following the release of the Spring 2024 "UNM ART MUSE/ZINE: Responses to Hindsight Insight 4.0," SAC created a second zine during the Fall of 2024 but this time with new participants, new research, and a new exhibition to pull inspiration from -- "Hindsight Insight 5.0."
