Anderson Museum of Contemporary Art - 11.29.2025

Anderson Museum of Contemporary Art

(32 reviews)

To kick off 2026, I must write about the Anderson Museum of Contemporary Art in Roswell, NM…read more This place is outstanding. Allow me tell you all the reasons why... First, it's free admission. Free parking too. Donations were welcome. Second, this behemoth of a building is home to the Roswell Artist-in-Residence (RAiR) Program, founded by the now deceased businessman and fellow artist Don Anderson. There are - to my recollection during our brief introduction on November 29, 2025 - hundreds of artists that apply every year. They dwindle that number down to 6. The artists hailed from all over the world. Third, the artwork is fascinating. There was no limit to the use of mediums either. Each piece is labeled with the artists name, their country of origin, what year they were born, the years they were RAiR, the title of the artwork, the year of its completion, and the mediums used. My middle school daughters and I thoroughly enjoyed room after room of inspiration. They talked about a few of the pieces for several days afterwards. And to think... this opportunity resides in the flat desert of southeastern New Mexico.

The Anderson Museum was such a highlight of my lengthy road trip across the country. I was just…read moresearching Google maps to see what there was to do in town, and came across this museum. I didn't really have any specific expectations going in, but this place honestly blew me away. I've been to some of the biggest art museums in the world and been less impressed. Pound for pound, I don't think any other art museum has had so many pieces that I found compelling. If you are in the area, I can't recommend this place enough. It may be a relatively small place compared to the likes of The MET, but this museum holds its own.

The Roswell Museum is a good place to learn all about the Roswell "weather balloon" incident…read more DISCLAIMER**** Although there are some videos you can press and watch throughout the museum, expect to be READING A TON. If you're not much of a reader, you don't get the benefit of the full value of the museum but still definitely interesting to check out for just 7 bucks. There are clean restrooms here and a fun simulation as well as an awesome gift shop carrying lots of alien themed items. One thing that was very interesting is the Research center. I believe it's free without admission ( they accept donations). You can go inside and it's essentially a library with UFO and paranormal themed books, as well as a separate room for sci fi books and another room with more incident reports and such to look at. It's pretty neat and I wish I had more time to sit and read a few of the interesting books they had. In short, this place is more fun for adults than for kiddos but if the kiddos can read it may be interesting for them.

Wonderful art museum, and we were just at Chicagos Art Institute last month & the works definitely…read moreheld our interest just as well. They even had like a meditating room with a heartbeat soundtrack and a place to sit down and just relax. Bonus, there's a planetarium with an interesting sky show. Prices have risen since previous posts--for 2 seniors is was 10 bucks each for the museum & sky show. Well worth it.
