Protecting New Mexico’s Rivers - $20 per personRivers run through the heart of New Mexico, shaping our history, culture, and sense of place. Los Poblanos and New Mexico Wild share a commitment to preserving and celebrating these natural assets that are of such importance in the Rio Grande River Valley, and across the state. Join us for a lively conversation celebrating the launch of Wild Waters: Passport to New Mexico’s Rivers, the newest addition to the Wild Guide series. Conservation Director Bjorn Fredrickson will explore why New Mexico’s rivers matter now more than ever, at a moment when only a fraction of the state’s 108,000 miles of rivers enjoy permanent protection. From whitewater runs to quiet canyon streams, this evening’s talk will highlight the beauty, ecology, and urgency of protecting our waterways.

Dr. Armin Rembe Lecture Series at La Quinta is a monthly event in honor of Dr. Rembe, who passed away in 2021. The series is inspired by his love of Los Poblanos, his curiosity, intelligence and community relationships. This series celebrates his legacy by promoting stimulating conversations rooted in the core values and mission of Los Poblanos. The series also reflects the rich history of La Quinta Cultural Center in the 1930s and 1940s, when the Simms family held events to promote the arts. As we work to preserve La Quinta as an important architectural landmark, we aim to emulate its dynamic programming through our own curated events and experiences. Experience a culturally rich day at La Quinta by joining us for afternoon tea before the evening lecture.
Guests are invited to visit the Library Bar at La Quinta between 4:30 and 5:30 PM before the talk begins at 5:30 PM.
