Rave Reviews

  • Wonderful library - especially the room with the children's books!! Very moving.

    Sharone F. Austin, TX

  • For anyone that would like to explore the complex cultural history of northern New Mexico, do not miss the Abiquiu Library and Cultural Center. The Library has a thoughtfully selected collection of Southwestern literature and artifacts, and the Library staff are friendly and helpful in navigating the space. The Library served as an excellent location for our meeting and I would highly recommend this venue to others for meetings that require an intimate and thoughtful location."
