Designation Process

Corrales MainStreet has been working hard since 2013 toward becoming a State Authorized Arts and Cultural District. This is an opportunity for all our arts and cultural organizations and businesses to collaborate to support an economically vibrant cultural district. We were approved in 2018, and are now in the final phase of this process. We received funds from New Mexico Main Street to complete the Arts and Cultural Economic Development Plan, which will help guide our work and provide access to future funding sources to complete projects in the district.

The next steps are to receive public input, then present our information to New Mexico Main Street. Once the board reviews the plan, it will be presented to the Village Council for approval and then the New Mexico Arts Commission for review. Our goal is to complete this process by August of 2024!
