The Doel Reed Center in Taos is a truly enchanted place to learn and has become one of OSU's most vibrant and sought-after educational experiences for both OSU students and leisure learners alike. The Center attracts visiting artists and scholars to produce original works, teach seminars, and collaborate with creative minds of any age or academic discipline.
Looking back at the 15+ year history of the Doel Reed Center in Taos, there have been many dedicated individuals that can be credited with the success of transforming the property from a family home and personal art studio to a thriving educational center and a point of pride for OSU.
Doel Reed property enhancements continue to be the priority for the near future. Enhancement funds are needed to replenish the dollars used on recent projects (ramada, parking, landscaping).
We must continue to enhance the Center's facilities to forge additional partnerships and deeper and more meaningful experiences for our course credit students, leisure learners and the community of Taos.
Funds are also needed to provide additional student experiences, such as internships and scholarships. Our desire is to provide as many educational opportunities as possible.
