The Artists of Picacho Hills is one of the newest art associations in Las Cruces. It was founded in 2008 by a few friends with shared interests who joined together to hold an Art in the Garden Show. This event attracted many people interested in art, and it blossomed into a group of 31 artists including painters, sculptors, jewelry makers, photographers, woodworkers, potters, textile and multimedia.
