POSTPONED Until Further Notice: Celebrating Our Future: Honoring Our Past
New Mexico Historic Sites

(Santa Fe, NM) -  In 2003, former State Representative J. Paul Taylor, his wife Mary Daniels Taylor, and their family donated their home and two attached stores to the New Mexico Department of Cultural Affairs for development as a future State Historic Site. 

The opportunity now before us is to transform this extraordinary gift into a public place that highlights the history, architecture, and culture of New Mexico. 

On Monday, January 29th, the Department of Cultural Affairs and New Mexico Historic Sites will recognize the Taylor Family at a special meet and greet in the Governor’s Gallery of the New Mexico State Capitol.  

After celebrating his 97th birthday, J. Paul was recently reappointed and confirmed by the Senate to the Museum of New Mexico Board of Regents.  Please plan to come visit with Regent Taylor and get a glimpse of the future Historic Site as you view a special exhibit highlighting the upcoming development of the home.

When: Monday, January 29, 2018

Where: Governors Gallery, NM State Capital

Time: Noon to 1:30
