Upcoming SMRC Mission Tour…
The Southwestern Mission Research Center Presents
Missions of the River Tour
Join us for a tour of the two Spanish colonial missions of Socorro and Ysleta (in Texas), established by the Spanish settlers and Natives who fled Northern New Mexico in 1680 during the Pueblo Revolt. We will also visit a rare presidio chapel and the village of San Elizario, the Ysleta del Sur Pueblo Cultural Center, and visits to a museum of archaeology, a farm/ranch museum, and the Chile Pepper Institute. Enjoy sopaipillas, New Mexico red and green chile, and some Texas BBQ, yum! Oh, and how about a tour and tasting at a winery? You won’t want to miss out on this special tour experience!
October 24-27, 2024 – $995 per person, double occupancy (single-additional $200). For reservations, contact Monica Young at mzyoung@arizona.edu or (520) 621-6278.
