Santa Fe's Center for Contemporary Arts continues its longstanding mission of identifying, promoting and presenting the work of visionary contemporary artists who are both emerging and established in their creative endeavors. The whole family will find these presentations and attractions fun and fascinating, as there are several multimedia films and rotating exhibits that are sure to capture everyone's attention and imagination.
Shidoni Arts creates art while being a work of art in and of itself. This stunning sculpture gallery is worth the ten-minute drive north on Bishop's Lodge Road to Tesuque Valley where the Shidoni Gallery is located. The expertly manicured grounds of the gallery are something truly amazing to behold, and you can stroll around to take in the amazing sculptures displayed there that lead to a calming, babbling brook. Depending on the time of your visit, you can actually see sculptures being poured in the working foundry.
When you're looking for some musical entertainment with a touch of class, look no further than Santa Fe Pro Musica Chamber Orchestra and Ensemble. These consummate professional musicians work hard to make each performance unforgettable for the audience as well as for themselves. Their versatility is impressive, as they present stellar interpretations of the work of such important composers as Mozart, Vivaldi and Bach, just to name a few. The group also presents a special Holy Week performance of Mozart and Hayden in the St. Francis Cathedral, along with the highly popular Christmas Candlelight Concert. The season runs from September through May.
The Santa Fe Rodeo is ranked as one of the nation's 100 top rodeos, and with good reason. This festival event is held every June, and features everything from barrel racing to bareback and bull riding. The rodeo has a rich history, as it has been roping in fans since it first was held back in 1949. This is an excellent family event, as the kids will enjoy the Mutton Bustin' event, carnival rides, and lots of great food and fun.
