(Deming NM)
Another New Mexico town displaying their art side with murals and sculptures. The murals were scattered around in different parts of town on the sides of shops.

This town mostly plays up the historic aspects, but there is room for art too. While there was a walking map to many historic buildings, finding the murals was hit or miss.

The county Arts Center displayed artwork by local artists. During this visit, a fabric arts show was up with some pretty nice pieces.

After grocery shopping and dinner, I spent the night in the state park a few miles from town.

I had not noticed any murals in my visits to Deming. I will look carefully next time. It has been about three years since was able to get a site in Rockhound SP. It is always full it seems. Thanks for reporting all the new things I need to see.
It’s worth a look around town to find the murals.
Wonderful creations. Sure wish I could travel and enjoy our beautiful lands. Yet following bloggers like you is a great substitute. Thanks much for sharing with me.
Nice to have you along following the journey Carolyn.
