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.

The New Mexico State University Cambios lecture series features writer Dr. John Fleck discussing how New Mexicans can negotiate an era of increasing competition for shrinking water resources.

Fleck’s talk, “Less Water: What do we do?” will start at 7 p.m. at the Rio Grande Theatre.

Fleck, a former journalist with the Albuquerque Journal, is writer-in-residence at the University of New Mexico School of Law’s Utton Center and professor of Practice in Water Policy and Governance at the UNM Department of Economics. Fleck is the author of "Water is for Fighting Over and Other Myths about the West" (2016) and co-author of "Science Be Damned: How Ignoring Inconvenient Science Drained the Colorado River" (2019).

Fleck will discuss how communities across the West can not only survive but thrive in a future of competing demands for precious water resources.

This event takes place on the second Saturday of even numbered months.
