THE 30-SECOND BRIEF
New Mexico Arts will hold a finalist presentation meeting on Aug. 5, 2026 for a site-specific Art in Public Places commission at Smith Brasher Hall on CNM’s main campus. This indicates an active selection process to choose an artist or team to design and install permanent public art funded under the One Percent for Public Art program. The decision is not yet shown, so creative firms, fabricators, and engineering partners supporting public art installations may have near-term opportunities around design support, fabrication, installation, lighting, and maintenance services tied to the chosen artwork.
Meeting runs 9:00 AM to 4:00 PM at Smith Brasher Hall auditorium, CNM main campus in Albuquerque.
