Colcha Registration
Our Colcha Community Workshop is going virtual until we are able to meet in person, and we will try going hybrid after that, meaning we will meet in person and with zoom. We have really enjoyed meeting so many participants from outside of Albuquerque and the State.

This workshop is instructed by Annette Gutierrez-Turk. Annette has taught this art form to groups internationally and at the NHCC for many years. She is also an award winning artist, most recently recognized in 2019 at Santa Fe Spanish Market. This workshop is for all levels of experience in an informal setting.  Annette will demonstrate as well as answer questions.  Everyone will have a chance to share what they are working on.

We meet the second Tuesday of the month at 9:30 am, starting February 8th.

Questions: Please email Elena at ElenaD.Baca@state.nm.us or call 505-220-7928

Thank you to the Sandia Mountains- EGA for their continued support of this program.
