About the Open Space Alliance

The Open Space Alliance is a nonprofit group of volunteers working with the City of Albuquerque Open Space Division to enhance our quality of life through:

• Increasing awareness of Open Space lands
• Building and strengthening partnerships with groups who share Open Space values
• Promoting conservation, acquisition and stewardship of Open Space lands
• Strengthening volunteerism and community outreach programs
• Providing financial support

Member support, memorial and other donations, and fund raising activities help support special programs and events aimed at preserving and promoting Open Space lands.

Projects supported by the Open Space Alliance include:

• Get Into Open Space, a program that brings Open Space experiences to local-area school students
• Dia del Rio, which promotes conservation work in the Rio Grande Bosque
• National Trails Day and trail care for Albuquerque's many hikers, runners, and bikers
• The Open Space News newsletter featuring quarterly calendars of events and updates on Open Space Division activities
• Other projects aimed at promoting and protecting Albuquerque's Open Space
