EXHIBIT A open at the New Mexico History Museum in Santa Fein May 2015, about the dispersion of Jews from the Iberian Peninsula following the Expulsion, including to NM; (3) the National Dialogues on Immigration, sponsored by the International Coalition of Sites of Conscience; (3) the Big Read, featuring Luis Alberto Urrea's novel about the U.S. - Mexican border, Into the Beautiful North, sponsored by the New Mexico Humanities Council (pending funding); and (4) Commemorations of the 1501" anniversary of "The Long Walk ", a series of forced marches starting in 1864, when 9,500 Navajo and 500 Mescalero Apache were forced by the U.S. Army to walk 400 miles from their homelands to incarceration at Fort Sumner and many thousands died. The exhibit will premiere in the gallery space at the non- profit organization Las Vegas Citizens Committee for Historic Preservation in December. Students will prototype a "memory gathering" community event in conjunction with the opening of the exhibition. In January the exhibit will travel to the gallery of the New Mexico Humanities Council (NMHC) in downtown Albuquerque, where it will remain on view until June. We will seek additional funding for the production of the exhibit from NMHC and the Santa Fe Community Foundation. x.) Library in -kind : $1,750.00 ( library staff from 5 libraries x $350) In -Kind Cost Share Our budget is based on participation of 5 rural and tribal libraries, and the estimate of $350 each of in -kind staff contributions of library staff. The estimate was established using an average of figures provided by NMHC for in -kind contributions from libraries that participate in programs that they sponsor. We anticipate that interest in Memories of Migration will be very high among rural libraries, community -based museums, and State Historic Sites throughout NM and that the project will continue beyond summer 2015 with other sources of funding, so this is a conservative estimate 2.)
