About the Center

The Barelas Community Center is one of the oldest community centers in Albuquerque. It was built in 1941–42 in Pueblo Revival style for the National Youth Administration by youth receiving "on-the-job" training. This center has a gymnasium, weight room, ceramics room, and computer lab. Community center memberships are free, call today to see how to get signed up!
