With the Route 66 Centennial approaching, the state is accepting projects corresponding to at least one of the four priority themes identified by the U.S. Route 66 Centennial Commission: commemoratives and publications, events and celebrations, international and national marketing, and infrastructure.
The Route 66 Centennial Coordination Group was established in 2023 by Executive Order for the purpose of identifying projects and activities that align with the U.S. Route 66 Centennial Commission. They have already hosted four stakeholder meetings in New Mexico communities, offering residents the opportunity to participate in open discussion to brainstorm ideas for promotions, product development, infrastructure investments and more in preparation for the Route 66 Centennial in 2026. Residents and community stakeholders can submit projects through the New Mexico Tourism Department website. Additionally, the Coordination Group will be hosting its next Stakeholder Meeting on November 19 in Grants. Residents and tourism stakeholders in the Grants and Gallup area are encouraged to attend. Learn more about the meeting here. Comments are closed.
