100 Years of Collecting|100 Years of Connecting is on view through December 13, 2025 at the Nuevo Mexicano Heritage Arts Museum, located at 750 Camino Lejo on Museum Hill in Santa Fe. Admission is free. Hours are noon to 4 p.m. Wednesday through Friday and 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Saturday. For more information, visit nmheritagearts.org.

The exhibition marks the Spanish Colonial Arts Society's centennial by telling its century-long story of creating and caring for an extraordinary trove of nearly 4,000 objects representing the distinctive Hispano heritage of New Mexico. This provides a unique lens on the Society’s legacy of connecting to a community of artists and supporters of Hispano arts in New Mexico and beyond.

Join us for a fireside chat at Kay Contemporary Art on 600 Canyon Road. Artist Sienna Van Slooten will be exhibiting her detailed graphite on paper drawings.
Her work is referenced from dozens of photographs of each species to capture what a photograph can’t always depict; the way it moves, interacts, and characteristics that Sienna relates too. She reads articles and researches habitats, characteristics, how an animal interacts with its ecosystem, all to get to the true essence of the animal. Her linework and expressions spark curiosity and recognition.

Sienna speaks of her need to protect the smaller and misunderstood prey animals. She feels they will not receive the same protection as other animals because they are seen as pests.
