The Corrales Historical Society is proud to provide the Speaker Series to benefit our members and the community.
Our purpose is to provide historical and cultural presentations about New Mexico that will engage the audience, creating meaningful connections. The speakers are experts in various topics, selected primarily from the Historical Society of New Mexico and the New Mexico Humanities Council Speakers Bureaus.
Speaker Series events are held monthly on Sunday afternoons at 2 pm at the Old Church located at 966 Old Church Road, Corrales, New Mexico. Refreshments are provided following the presentations. The Speaker Series programs are free and open to the public. We ask our guests to arrive early as seating capacity is limited. Saving of seats is discouraged. Once the seating capacity of the building is reached, the event will be closed.
For more information, please contact our Speaker Series Chair, Dean Sherer at CHSSpeakerSeries@CorralesHistory.org
