The McCray Gallery of Contemporary Art will present "Meandro," an exhibition by Assistant Professor of Sculpture Erin Monet Wheary. In 2023, Wheary embarked on an inspiring residency in Colombia, collaborating with fellow artists to create "Meandro"—a site-specific, time-based installation that embodies the elemental force of water etching its passage through the earth. Viewers will do more than just observe this exhibition; they will also create art as they stroll through the gallery.

SILVER CITY, NM, Aug. 26, 2024 – All Gila National Forest offices will be closed on Monday, September 2 in observance of the Labor Day holiday. Labor Day stems from the late 1800's, when labor organizers pushed for a holiday in recognition of the many contributions of the American worker to our nation's strength, prosperity, and well-being.
"The Gila National Forest is the ideal place to come out and celebrate one of the last long weekends of summer this Labor Day weekend," said Gila National Forest Supervisor Camille Howes. "What better place to gather with friends for a day or a weekend of relaxation as we honor the American worker."

Join us for a showing of "Untreated and Unheard: The Addiction Crisis in America" in honor of those we have lost to overdose in Grant County. Our community collaboration is honored to host this event at the Silco Theater on August 31, 2024, starting at 2:30 PM.
Since 2000, 1.1 million people in the U.S. have died of a preventable overdose, with nearly 110,000 lives lost to preventable overdoses in 2023 alone. The crisis is most severe for historically marginalized and under-resourced communities; low income, unhoused, Black, Brown, and Indigenous people, and people living in rural settings are dying at disproportionate rates. It doesn't have to be this way.
