  Public Art Program In the Alibi

 
 
Last week's issue of the Alibi ran an article about our efforts to make the public art collection more digitally accessible. As you may already know, we have uploaded large portions of the collection to a smart phone app and website called MuseumWithoutWalls, the National Public Art Archive website, and our Flickr account. We are also working on an interactive public art map for the City of Albuquerque website. To access these sites and explore more of the collection visit our "Public Art in Albuquerque" page.
Visit us on the 6th floor of the City/County building (Cultural Services Dept.) to pick up a hard copy of the Alibi.

There is one about future art at Fire Station 2 and 7, one about the newly finished Hahn Arroyo mosaic project called "Rain to River," one about the Bear Canyon Bridge that is being built now at I-25 and Jefferson, and one about our temporary art initiative called IN-SIGHT. Check out these new videos and all of our videos by visiting our "Public Art Videos" page. Be sure to let us know what you think about these new ones!
