El Paso Texas
El Paso is a unique destination, perhaps the largest borderplex in North America, straddling three states, two cities, and an international border. El Paso has a population of over 600,000 and together with Ciudad Juarez and southern New Mexico, it grows to over 3 million. It is a region where history and culture collide to produce unique sights, sounds, and experiences. El Paso provides a fluid cultural exchange that has resulted in a diverse and thriving arts scene, represented by a nationally recognized symphony orchestra, art museum, Spanish mission trail, and the emergence of young arts collectives and a public art program. For additional information about El Paso, please visit the city's website or The Convention and Visitors Bureau. 

We are hosted this year by Yolanda Alameda and the Museum and Cultural Affairs Department. Please keep in mind while booking your travel—Monday is President’s Day.
