For your Financial and Insurance Planning needs
Jeff’s understanding surely bests those of many veterans in the field, & my wife and I have been approached by many. The value of his guidance was immeasurable & he exuded an unmatched professionalism while at the same time putting us at ease discussing a topic most people generally wish to avoid. Jeff reviewed our needs, informed us of our options & guided us to the products he felt would best accomplish our goals; his advice was not tainted by any self-interest. Put simply, Jeff is exceptional and we look forward to working with him again when our financial needs change. I strongly recommend calling Jeff Krumholz. He is great.” ~ Laura and Jeff E.

Maximize Your Maternity Leave
How much time off and pay can you receive during your maternity leave? It may be much more than you think. Since HR’s motivation is to get you back at work as soon as possible, the information they supply is often incomplete or incorrect. Lauren will give you the foundation you need so that you don’t forfeit your benefits, even if you don’t plan to return to work. Whether you’re thinking about getting pregnant, are pregnant, or just had your baby it’s imperative to understand your rights.

On Location: Art at the End of the Frontier Romance Gallery
It continues to expand the chronology & art history lessons of the Romance Gallery by showcasing the emergence of regional art colonies as the perceived source of a new & authentic American art. A 20th-century phenomenon, artists’ groups such as the Taos Society of Artists organized & collaborated in an attempt to find new sources of art & identity and to define themselves in relation to the industrial east, Modernism & the waning frontier. They created new definitions of place that continue to shape the economic, social & political realities of these same locales. This exhibition includes works by prominent New Mexico and California artists, including Maynard Dixon, Ernest Blumenschein & Georgia O’Keeffe.
