The New Mexico Alliance for Arts Education (NMAAE) was created in 1973 as a non-profit organization affiliated with the Alliance for Arts Education, John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts. The New Mexico Alliance worked to have a state legislative memorandum passed to require arts education in the schools. They raised funds by selling cookbooks and received small grants from the Kennedy Center and the New Mexico Arts Division. By 1992, the organization ceased to exist as an active chapter, due to lack of interested members and funding.
