Georgia O'Keeffe Museum Teams Up with the New Mexico Rail Runner Express for a Special Offer Offer Valid October 12 - November 30 SANTA FE, N.M – The Georgia O'Keeffe Museum is proud to
announce that it will be offering a $2 admission discount to anyone
presenting a valid ticket for the New Mexico Rail Runner Express
between Oct. 12 and Nov. 30, 2009.
With the Rail Runner’s Santa Fe Depot station
only a half–mile away from the museum, many visitors from
Albuquerque, Los Lunas, Belen, Bernalillo and the rest of the middle
Rio Grande valley have a more convenient way to visit the museum and
experience Georgia O’Keeffe’s works for themselves.
“Opportunities for people to use the New
Mexico Rail Runner Express continue to grow as more and more
businesses and organizations create partnerships with the train,”
said Lawrence Rael, executive director for the Mid-Region Council of
Governments. “Georgia O’Keeffe was clearly a treasure for New
Mexico, and it’s great to be able to associate the train with her
legacy.”
The Georgia O'Keeffe Museum is located at 217
Johnson Street in Santa Fe, a short walk northwest of the Santa Fe
Plaza. ABOUT THE NEW MEXICO RAIL RUNNER EXPRESS

seven days a week between Belen and Santa Fe with 11 stations
throughout the 100-mile corridor. The cost of a round trip day pass
between Albuquerque and Santa Fe is only $8 on weekdays and $6 on
weekends. Please visit nmrailrunner.com to see a current train
