Taos Pueblo Wellness Center
This state-of-the-art wellness center for the Taos Pueblo will include fitness and recreation components with the goal of enhancing Taos Pueblo’s health and wellbeing for generations to come. The new facility will be built adjacent to existing medical and behavioral health facilities to create an overall wellness district that consolidates functions and simplifies public and private transportation.
The architectural design and functional amenities are creatively woven into the Pueblo’s cultural fabric making the Wellness Center the heart of the community. Materials and motifs were selected to reflect the Pueblo’s connection to the local environment. The center will serve the community with a modern, safe and welcoming environment for indoor and outdoor recreation, improving long-term multi-generational health and new recreational opportunities on Tribal land.
