This exhibit was funded through the interest of Dr. Franklin Murphy and the George E. and Annette Cross Murphy Charitable Fund. Their generous donation also resulted in 2,211 students and 100 teachers spending a day at the Museum learning of New Mexico’s past and their cultural legacy.
The wealth of objects and information presented in The Cañada Alamosa Project: 4000 Years of Agricultural History is the result of the combined efforts of many partners and players. The Museum would like to acknowledge and thank the stalwart crew who made this exhibit possible.
