Watch the trailer.

We are pleased to announce a special screening of Arcie Chapa's film, Acequias: The Legacy Lives On.

Join us Sunday, August 13th at 1pm for a screening of the film and a Q&A with director Arcie Chapa after.

Registration open, $5 suggested donation.

For over 400 years, acequias (community-operated irrigation systems) have been in continuous use and remain important to an understanding of New Mexico's heritage. The film looks at New Mexico's enduring acequias as seen through the eyes of farmers, advocates, scholars, practitioners, lawmakers, journalists and members of the community.


Funded by UNM's Center for Regional Studies, the film unfolds through a series of storylines including the acequias' current challenges, such as climate change and water rights transfers, their important role in the development of local food sheds, and the economic opportunity they provide for members of rural communities.


Please forward this event to anyone who may be interested.
