The actors who often take the stage at Theater Grottesco love to challenge their audiences. These performers are as versatile as they are talented, and that is quite obvious from the far-ranging selection of material that the group performs year round. From side-splitting comedy entertainment to stern-faced dramas to buoyant dance numbers, these pros can do it all. And, in addition to offering such fine theatrical performances, their work is often thought-provoking and emotionally charged to the point that what they do within the confines of their characters will make a lasting imprint on you long after the curtain has come down.
The fact that the New Mexico Museum of Art has been around for 90 years says quite a bit about the timeliness and importance of the work it has consistently presented. Focusing primarily on New Mexico artists that include Georgia O'Keeffe, Maria Martinez and Luis Tapia, this venue features a rich yet relaxing atmosphere that you and your partner will enjoy as you stroll from one gallery to the next on a romantic date. The museum is housed in a Santa Fe-styled building, and the two of you will no doubt enjoy escaping the everyday pressures to relax and take in some truly memorable art.
Santa Fe's the Palace of the Governors is a museum truly built on history. The building was constructed in 1619 by Governor Pedro de Peralta and it stands as the oldest continuously used public building in the United States. Revisit the Spanish colonial period or the Mexican American War when you view the stunning collection of over 17,000 objects that are housed in this dramatic and interesting venue.
