Thank you and more

What an exciting couple of weeks! First I want to say thank you to everyone who attended the reception for our new exhibit "Git Fer Vegas, Cowboy!" and the corresponding performance "Songs of the Cowboys" with Mark Gardner and Rex Rideout. Both events were well attended, and extremely successful. A special thank you to our Funders - Friends of the City Museum, New Mexico Humanitites Council and the National Endowment for the Humanities as part of a We the People Project, Los Alamos National Laboratory Foundation, Las Vegas/San Miguel Chamber of Commerce, City of Las Vegas Lodgers tax Advisory Board, and the Department of Cultural Affairs in partnership with New Mexico Highlands University Media Arts Department. And thank you to the members of the NMHU Rodeo team who helped with the tickets and seating at the performance!

I encourage people to learn more about what Mark and Rex do by visiting here:http://songofthewest.com, and also at cowboypoetry. com. And please support them by buying their CD's and books!

Also, we launched our new website on November 1st. Please take a few minutes to check it out - http://www.lasvegasmuseum.org. The new design was created by Hired Gun Design. Funding for the website was provided in part by Friends of the City Museum, and the City of Las Vegas Lodgers tax fund.
