Opening Reception July 20, 2024 4-6pm
Over the last twenty-five years, the Mesa Prieta Petroglyph Project has worked diligently for the protection and preservation of the cultural landscape of the northern Rio Grande Valley region. We estimate there are well over a 100,000 petroglyphs that expand a vast timeline from Archaic periods through Spanish contact and 20th century influences. In addition to ancestral petroglyps, Mesa Prieta includes numerous archaeological features such as grid gardens and historic trails that are interwoven into the Valley's histories.
This exhibit includes photography by Norman Doggett and other materials that highlight the histories, traditions, and archaeological features of the region. We invite visitors to learn more about the educational mission of the Mesa Prieta Petroglyph Project and to further engage with this special place known as Mesa Prieta - Tsikwaye.
Exhibit hours are every Wednesday, Friday and Saturday from 12:00 to 4:00 pm. The Bond House Museum also features a permanent exhibit detailing the grand history of the Espanola Valley area. Admission is free. Donations are welcomed.
