The Tamarind Institute is simply amazing. I visited recently for a meeting and was blown away by…read morethe level of quality, the diversity of their prints, and the impact they make in the larger art community. If it's open when you are in town it is well worth a visit.

More education and training-based than gallery (it's called an institute, after all), the Tamarind…read moreis a fun tour and immersive experience at the crossroads of tutelage, mastering and marketing the arts. That's more like a six-way intersection, not a crossroads, I guess, but hey, even cooler. Internationally renowned for graduating some talented future-focussed creatives, it's well worth a gander, particularly for a solid appreciation of what makes a print a true Print. The work on the walls revolve, reflecting who's been there, lately, although you'll love the permanent installations by the front door. After a brief tour of collections, the best part of your visit will be the lower levels, where students live and work together, creating startlingly vibrant prints. If you're lucky enough to get a comprehensive overview of the place, as I did, you'll see just how these works are pressed and honed, an extraordinary and ancient process that can't be duplicated by modern ink jets. This is one of those hidden gems tucked aside a college campus that I just assumed, during my five years at UNM, was simply classrooms. Not. Call to arrange your visit, and enter through the doorway next to the parking lot, southwest of Central.

Contestant: Alex, I'll take Geeks for eight hundred. (Queue…read morestupid laser-zapping sound effect from the 80's.) Alex: You've hit today's daily double! How much would you like to wager? Contestant: Uh, let's go with two thousand, Alex. Alex: That'll make you the leader if you get this right. Two thousand. Okay, so the answer is: "Albuquerque's Hackerspace." Contestant: What is... Quelab? Alex: That's correct! The Duke City has a hummin' hackerspace, indeed, and it's about to blow up. Attention futurists: this lil' shack (about 6,000 square feet of pure imagination and cranial connectivity) is crafting a community of people from every walk of life who dream in the über, they see things ten or fifty years out and they're just dyin' to create it. Screw The Man, they're just gonna do it. You gotta check this space out. The old and young, College educated and otherwise, a huge demographic of everyday peeps own this place. $40 a month gives them 24-hour access to the facility, tools and resources; techie entrepreneurs find this monetary pittance an absolute must. Over the past six or so years, Quelab has been the hub for ABQ tech enthusiasts. They now have a compound complete with 3D printers, a laser cutter, a shop, education sessions and plenty of bright minds that propagate brilliance. Come May 2014 the space will also open to the masses. In the meantime join them for hacknight, 7-10 pm Tuesday and Sunday evenings, geeking out on what can only be described as digital delight. I took the tour, this is one smart non-profit worth your support.

I'm Loving our new building. Still working out some of the kinks, but the openhouse Wednesdays…read moreare back 7pm-9pm (except on major holidays and snow days). Looking forward to a long run of people making and DIY hobby building on RT66
