For several years, many of you have heard about a new Arts Complex on the NMSU campus. This dream is on the verge of becoming a reality!! In the spring of 2008, the Legislature approved $19 million to be a part of the GO bond voted on last November.
Although this is the state's largest allocation for a single project, it only partially funds phase one of a multi-phase complex that will be located at the corner of Espina and University. Efforts are underway to raise an additional $12 million needed to fund phase one.
If you would like to donate to this project please call (575) 646-3587.
