Drawing from the University Art Museum's extensive collection of over 2,200 Mexican retablos, Trinities of Heaven and Earth explores the spiritual and cultural importance of these sacred images. Retablos, small devotional paintings traditionally displayed in Mexican homes, served as vital expressions of Catholic faith and values within the household. The imagery of the Holy Family conveys blessings related to family life, while depictions of the Holy Trinity invoke divine guidance. Together, these themes explore the connection between sacred devotion and earthly life, bridging the divine and the domestic.

The exhibition will open on March 21, 2025, at 5:30 pm in the Margie and Bobby Rankin Retablo Gallery, and will be open until March 7, 2026.

Have you ever wanted to be a DJ, or host your own radio talk show? Perhaps you were even a professional DJ in the past, but you were forced to play what the programmer told you to play, not the music you loved. Or, you might be someone who wants to help behind the scenes at a radio station.

Did you know an opportunity exists here in Las Cruces for you to fulfill your dreams? We are KTAL-LP 101.5 FM, Las Cruces’ Community Radio Station. If you are curious about what it takes to have your own show, please join us for one of our monthly information sessions. The first one will be September 15th, 6pm at KTAL-LP.
Check us out! 101.5 FM or LCCOMMUNITYRADIO.ORG

Join us for our monthly volunteer gatherings, held on the second Tuesday of every month from 9:30AM -10:30AM at the Asombro Institute for Science Education office at 401 E College Drive, Las Cruces. This is a great opportunity to meet other volunteers who have worked in the education and STEM realms, have a shared interest in promoting science among K-12 students in our local schools, and have a passion for contributing to the great community we live in! We work on a variety of tasks such as prepping materials for Asombro's education programs, compiling kits for teacher workshops, assembling items for classroom science experiments, and whatever else is needed to increase natural science literacy through engaging, place-based education!
