Welcome back to the Las Cruces Museums!
We are happy to welcome you back into the Museum of Art! To ensure the health and safety of our staff and guests, we have implemented a number of procedures for visitation.
Guests with COVID-19 symptoms or who are sick will not be permitted to enter. Guests are expected to follow health guidelines by wearing a mask over nose and mouth, and maintaining a distance of at least six feet from others at all times.
The Museum of Art is open on a reservation-only basis to reduce the number of individuals in the museum at any given time. Reservations must be made at least 24 hours in advance. Reservations may be made for the following hours:
Tuesday – Friday, noon – 4:30 pm (last reservation at 4pm)
Saturday – 1-4pm (last reservation at 3:30pm)
. Please call 575-522-3120 or 575-528-3330 or email education@las-cruces.org to schedule your visit. Please arrive 5 minutes before your reserved time. If you arrive later than 10 minutes, we will ask that you reschedule your visit to respect the reservations of other patrons. Groups of more than 10 people will be asked to break into smaller groups.
We are not conducting tours at this time. Please call 575-528-3330 or email education@las-cruces.org for the latest information on tours.
The Museum of Nature and Science, the Branigan Cultural Center, and the Railroad Museum remain closed at this time.
Hand sanitizing stations are located near restrooms and front desks. We are happy to provide disposable masks (limit one per person) to visitors who have forgotten their own at home. Please dispose of masks in any of the trash bins in the lobbies or restrooms of our facilities.
While we are closed to the public, please check out our Calendar of Events to see how you can interact with the museums on our virtual platforms.
