KNME-TV (Television station : Albuquerque, N.M.) · June 29, 2019

Set among 25 acres of lavender fields, lush gardens, and historic architecture, Los Poblanos’ field-to-fork restaurant, Campo, celebrates local food culture. “Rio Grande Valley Cuisine tastes like New Mexico. It’s the sky, it’s the air, it’s everything that encompasses this state and that river.”—Johnathan Perno. Albuquerque High School jewelry teacher, Ms. Elizabeth Gillett, and students share how the creative experience enhances student success. “I see my students, working in jewelry, have this "aha" moment of like, ‘I can do this’ and it gives them a great deal of confidence.” Albuquerque’s Danielle Rae Miller layers intricate patterns, inspired by nature, with mythology. "I want the work to be a nonverbal representation of interconnectedness, maybe even in some ways that we can't immediately verbalize."
