Presented by Taos Jazz Bebop Society.

Founded in 2014, Taos Jazz Bebop Society is Northern New Mexico’s premier presenter of world-class jazz concerts.

Take a moment to slow down with art. Each month, a Harwood educator will lead you through a series of exercises to explore a single work of art. Most museum visitors spend less than seven seconds with a work of art. This 30-minute conversation in the galleries will open your eyes and deepen your connection with art.

Join Curator MaLin Wilson-Powell and Artist Jonathan Warm Day Coming along with other members of the family for an intimate conversation about the life and work of Eva Mirabal, who is currently featured in the exhibition Pursuit of Happiness: GI Bill in Taos.

As a youth, Eva Mirabal attended the Santa Fe Indian boarding school in Santa Fe, where she studied in Dorothy Dunn’s legendary painting program. She enlisted in the army in 1943, and her full-time assignment was painting several murals at the Wright-Patterson Air Force Base in Ohio. She also created a cartoon titled G.I. Gertie, about a Women’s Army Corps (WAC) who undermines military protocol. After her discharge in 1946, Mirabal taught for a year at Southern Illinois Normal University and then returned to Taos Pueblo. While nursing her elderly mother, she attended the Mandelman-Ribak Taos Valley Art School with her GI Bill benefits.

Support for this program is provided in part by New Mexico Arts, a Division of the Department of Cultural Affairs, and the National Endowment for the Arts.

Hear from the artists featured in Unearthing Futures/Desenterrando Futuros. This event is ticketed in the Arthur Bell Auditorium. Details forthcoming.

Unearthing Futures / Desenterrando Futuros explores contemporary earthen artworks, establishing a profound dialogue between regional roots and global perspectives. As visitors engage with the exhibition, they embark on a journey through time, examining the intricate relationship between humanity and the elemental material of unfired earth.

At its core, this exhibition highlights the transformative power of mud—a substance that bridges tradition and innovation, ecology and artistry. Through the work of rafa esparza, Christine Howard Sandoval, Ronald Rael, Santino Gonzales, Joanna Keane Lopez, and Gabriel Chaile, Unearthing Futures navigates the intersections of technological progress, societal change, and environmental stewardship. Each artwork invites reflection on a rapidly evolving world, encouraging viewers to consider the past, engage with the present, and imagine futures shaped by deeper connections to the land.

Situated within the striking landscapes of Northern New Mexico and Southern Colorado, Unearthing Futures extends beyond the Harwood Museum’s galleries, incorporating historic and contemporary earthen building sites throughout the region. These sites and their histories become integral to the exhibition, emphasizing the enduring interplay between art, architecture, and environment.

The legacy of adobe and earthen clay in the Southwest is deeply rooted in Indigenous traditions and enriched by successive cultural influences. From Pueblo communities to Spanish settlers, adobe architecture embodies resilience, adaptation, and collaboration. Unearthing Futures reflects on this legacy, challenging audiences to reconsider their relationship to the land and its materials while engaging with contemporary reinterpretations of these practices.

Bring the whole family to celebrate the opening of Unearthing Futures/Desenterrando Futuros, an exhibition of contemporary earthen artworks that explore local roots and global perspectives.
