Museum of Indian Arts & Culture
This museum has an amazing collection of artifacts, many of them over 1,000 years old and in very good condition. As you progress through the museum, the stories of the Indian tribes of New Mexico are told by tribe members through short videos and written accounts. The temporary exhibits include contemporary art and exhibits of artwork from other native cultures.
The museum is all accessible. There’s a ramp leading into the exhibits and then a small elevator that requires a key to operate so you must wait for the museum personnel to come help with it.
Parking for RVs is available in the overflow lot located across the street from the museum. Part of the lot is gravel so park near the edge. After crossing the street there is a bit of a hill in the main lot. If you have a van or car, there’s plenty of handicapped parking in the main lot. An elevator accesses the plaza where the Indian museum is located. The Folk Art is also located in the plaza and there’s a path from the main lot to the Museum of Spanish Colonial Art.

Another ABQ park you might enjoy is Tingley Beach.

Like you, my wife has limited mobility. This park has lots of RV parking room and easy access to a paved multi-use path.
Enjoy:

Thanks for the tip! We're on the road again but I've marked Tingley Beach on the NM map - another place to see on our next trip through!
