Description: Artesia Arts Council is committed to bringing art to the Southeastern New Mexico Commuity.
With 10 founding patrons and 54 charter members the Artesia Arts council was formed in April 1975. Since then we have hosted two Annual Events: Art in the Park, held the third Saturday of October, and Missoula Children’s Theatre Camp.
In 2001 we purchased a building and over the next several years raised funds to renovate the building into what is now the Ocotillo Performing Arts Center.
To encourage expression and learning through art and culture for all ages that will enrich the communities of Southeast NM.
