Albuquerque is a culturally rich community, due largely in part to the efforts of the City's Department of Arts & Culture. With 19 Public Library branches, two museums, two performance theaters, a zoo, aquarium, botanic garden, and popular fishing ponds, numerous large- and small-scale family-friendly events and activities, a vast array of Public Art, the historic plazas of Old Town, government/community television, and much more, the department sustains Albuquerque's quality of life at a high level for residents and visitors alike. The mission of the Department of Arts & Culture is to enhance the quality of life in the city by celebrating Albuquerque's unique history and culture, and providing services, entertainment, programs, and collections that improve literacy, economic vitality, and learning in state of the art facilities that enrich city life and increase tourism to Albuquerque.
