Come Celebrate The Guardians!

"The Guardians" by Nora Naranjo-Morse at
Altura Park

Join us as we dedicate "The Guardians," on Saturday, February 15th at 11:00 a.m. at Altura Park, in a ceremony that will include members of the Albuquerque Arts Board and other dignitaries, along with Espaņola, NM artist, Nora Naranjo-Morse, who designed the new artwork.

 

"These forms are meant to be guardians of the neighborhood, sentinels that symbolize the spirit of the community," said Naranjo-Morse. "The shapes of houses, trees, even the worn path walkers in the park have made, became vital pieces of information in making the sculptures."

 

Come welcome the new sculptures! The event is free and open to the public. Bring your friends and family! You can RSVP on our Facebook page
