Program Description

Event Details

New Mexico’s cuisine reflects centuries of cultural exchange, shaped by Indigenous traditions and more than 300 years of Spanish and Mexican influence. From the official state cookie, the bizcochito (pictured), to the ever-present question—“Red or green?”—food is deeply woven into New Mexico’s identity. 

Join Christopher Gibson to explore the Native and Hispanic contributions that define the state’s culinary heritage and discover how history, geography, and tradition have created a cuisine unlike any other in the United States. 

This virtual lecture will take place live over the course of 1-2 hours.  You will not be pictured on screen during the lecture, but you will have the opportunity to ask the instructor live questions using the Q&A box.
