Get Involved

Have an interest in the Southwest? Possess expertise in specific topics of the Southwest? Know of a program or event you would like to add to our site?

The Center needs your support in many ways, and we would like for you to join us in making our efforts successful. We welcome anyone with an interest in the Southwest to help us achieve our educational goals.

Here's how you can help:

  • Contribute information to our website. If you would like to add information about regional humanities opportunities—e.g. resources, programs, events—contact our Webmaster.
  • Join our New Friends Program. Help us promote and assist with our activities, get the message about out what we are doing, encourage others to help, and attend events that we sponsor.
  • Volunteer. We need people to compile and update our bibliographies on topics of their expertise, whether it is music, art, geology, or cuisine.

The Jesse H. and Mary Gibbs Jones Professor of Southwestern Studies, Jim Kimmel, leads the New Friends and Volunteer Programs. Please email him if you can help us in any way or if you would like to get information from us regularly about what we are doing here at the Center.

Contribute

And, finally, we especially need financial help to meet the NEH Challenge Grant requirements for matching funds. Learn more about how to contribute.
