Founded in 1970, SENMHS seeks to foster the education and appreciation of Southeastern New Mexico through our photo archives, collections, and stewardship efforts.
Pending a permanent public facility for our collections, we are accepting new collections and artifacts on a limited and cautious basis. We work directly with our Board Members and Carlsbad Museum for all donation inquiries.

Our online photo database, Near Loving’s Bend, was started as a hobby by our former president and benefactor, Jed Howard. To learn more about the history of our collection and about the life of Mr. Howard, click the button above.
