Although Jewish history in New Mexico had its beginnings when it was still a far-flung colony of Spain, it has attracted Jews as diverse as the German-born merchants of the 1800s to immigrant and first generation Jews whose roots were in Eastern Europe. They played a significant role in the commercial, civic, and religious life of Albuquerque in the 20th century, building businesses and a vital community. Panel discussions and a walking tour address the contributions of Jewish merchants to Albuquerque, NM
