Carrizozo New Mexico Announces
Carrizozo Colony, Artist in Residence 2016 pilot program
Hi! I am the current artist in residence at the Carrizozo Colony and would like to invite Carrizozo residents to participate in a silent video about the town's geography. Volunteers will be filmed in a one-on-one interview format, but only the participants' backs and arms will be recorded. If you would like to help me with the project or are simply interested in chatting, call me at (305)-877-1418 or email me at [email protected]. You can view images of my work here: www.cargocollective.com/jimegracia Thanks!
The Mission of the Carrizozo Colony AIR is to provide individual artists space and time to focus on chosen projects in the arts. With a broad definition of ‘artist,’ the Carrizozo Colony is open to a wide a variety of artistic mediums and creative ventures. The residency promises solitude as well as interaction with the Carrizozo community. The distinctive topography, varied life zones, and multicultural archeology of South Central New Mexico afford a unique connection with the land.
In 2015 Warren & Joan Malkerson and MoMAZoZo combined their efforts to create the Carrizozo Colony AIR. Artists live and work on Carrizozo’s historic 12th Street.

Groups looking for something a bit different might want to head to Carrizozo, a small town about 150 miles south of Albuquerque. Located in stunning high-desert surroundings, Carrizozo is world-famous for its cherry cider and now is home to a somewhat quirky art community. The town’s many innovative, skilled artists work in diverse mediums and send their art to buyers and museums all over the country.
The town has many interesting galleries, including Heart of the Raven, featuring raku pottery and paintings; Momazozo (pictured), a community arts organization that engages guests in spontaneous creative activities; Malkerson Gallery 408, a contemporary space featuring the works of more than 25 local artists and an outdoor sculpture garden; Tularosa Basin Gallery of Photography, exhibiting the works of more than 35 New Mexico photographers; and Highway 54 Emporium, boasting an eclectic mix of vintage ware, art by Lincoln County artists and charming upcycled art by owner Sheila Lynch.
Carrizozo is only about an hour’s drive from The Inn of the Mountain Gods Resort & Casino, owned by the Mescalero Apache Tribe. The inn offers 273 guest rooms, panoramic views, hiking trails, 18-hole championship golf course, an indoor pool and 40,000 sq. ft. of meeting space, including 15 rooms.
