Location: 
Juan Tabo Library (3407 Juan Tabo NE)

The museum is officially open, but the museum’s team of educators are still bringing natural history into the community with a full slate of public programs in Bernalillo County libraries and community spaces during the spring months. Explore the museum's traveling exhibition New Mexico Rocks! and learn about our state's unique geology at Juan Tabo Library.

Information about Juan Tabo Library is available here.

About the exhibition: New Mexico Rocks! is a specially retrofitted 38-foot RV exploring New Mexico’s regional geology though a hands-on science exhibit. Geology is the study of Earth: what it is made of, how it was made, and how it is still being shaped. This exhibition explores the state’s “geoscape,” which can be divided into 5 regions. New Mexico Rocks! meets NM STEM Ready! Science Standards.

This mobile museum will be visiting schools and libraries throughout Albuquerque, in collaboration with the New Mexico Department of Cultural Affairs’ Wonders on Wheels program. For more on NMDCA’ statewide Wonders on Wheels Mobile Museum program, visit newmexicoculture.org/museum-resources/wonders-on-wheels
