Overview

Tijeras Canyon with Tijeras at the east end and Carnuel at the west end has been an important community for hundreds of years. Communities thrive because of the people who live and work there. This talk focuses on those people and their stories in a time frame of 1900 to 1950.

Historic Albuquerque, along with three other historic preservation groups, are putting on the New Mexico Route 66 Centennial Speaker Series. The presentations will be provided free to the public on the 4th Saturday of each month in 2026 (except December) from 11:00 am to 12:30 pm at 12 different locations simultaneously. Most of these locations on along the Mother Road.
