New Mexico means various things for many people. Coming from NYC, I imagined New Mexico to be a dry arid land with not much greenery or plant life (much like in the Wile E. Coyote and the Road Runner). Upon my arrival I was surprised when I was greeted by an overwhelmingly beautiful landscape filled with all the colors of a color wheel. Additionally, the Sunsets are filled with magic that stops you in your tracks. Being used to the mile a minute NYC environment, I was not prepared to encounter people who were polite, friendly and generous like the folks in New Mexico.
Arts & Entertainment Mecca
In addition to many home-grown artists, New Mexico attracts artists of all mediums who often make the state their home. This combination of talented folks use their many talents to create a vibrant, world-class arts and entertainment locale. So much is going on in New Mexico that it is quite difficult to keep track of it all. The folks at I am New Mexico have undertaken this incredible task. They not only cover the arts and entertainment scene but introduce the readers to the wonderful cuisine, discuss the educational institutions, serve as a multimedia events calendar and provide insights of this amazing place by locals.
Shop Local
I have discussed the benefits of shopping local several times: Economic, Cultural, Quality of Life (among other benefits). I am New Mexico promotes this cause with multimedia articles featuring local businesses as well as highlighting local cuisine and culture. In the video below I discuss the importance of shopping local with KeepitQuerque Executive Director Clifton Chadwick.
The health and vitality of our community, of New Mexico, depends on community members frequenting their local businesses, enjoying local arts and shopping local. The influx of tourists also helps New Mexico economically, The folks at I am New Mexico do an incredible job spreading the word day in and day out!
