St. Andrew Scottish Society of New Mexico SouthWest

"Ceud Mile Failte"

("a hundred thousand welcomes")

The Society was founded in 1961 (the SouthWest Branch was started in mid-2011) with the aim of promoting an interest in Scottish culture, scholarship, and fellowship amongst Scots, and Scottish Americans in New Mexico. We are a 501(c)(3) tax-exempt organization that not only celebrates all things Scottish, but works with many organizations to better the communities we live in. We welcome your involvement in the society and we encourage you to explore our website, learn more about us, drop us a line, read the latest issue of the Thistle Epistle - our quarterly magazine, and even join the society.

St. Andrew Societies were originally organized during the period of the Scottish Immigration of the 19th Century, in order to assist Scots settling in their new country by supporting cultural activities. Today promotion of the Scottish and Celtic cultures continues, here in the Southwest region of New Mexico, through the efforts of our members.
