Community Craft Night
Making Rain-Themed Costumes, Props & Decor in Gear Up for the September 26 Walking Parade @ Rio Fernando Park
ABOUT EVENT
RAIN ON OUR PARADE is a communal celebration in gratitude for the live-giving rains and waterways that sustain us. Part party and part prayer/ritual, this 0.5-mile walking parade — full of music, games, storytelling, land connection, and many chances to dance — brings folx of all backgrounds together at the Taos Land Trust’s Rio Fernando Wetlands Park (TAOS, NM) on Saturday afternoon, September 26.
The two-hour event will feature an opening blessing, a brass band to “rain dance” us along, plus small performances at different stops along the way. We will end with a “give back” to TLT, an act of community service in gratitude for the space, such as weeding thistles or painting the structure around the horno.
With weekly community costuming craft nights at Inspire Roots Schoolhouse all through September leading up to the event, this is truly a communal coming-together in creativity and joy as a way to honor the water that connects us all.
Participation for precipitation, y’all!!!

ARTIST STATEMENT
More than anything, it is the dualities that aren’t really dualities that interest me: body and mind, the microscopic and the macroscopic, the energy fields that surround us, and reality. What if every artist were the intermediary between what we see and what we imagine? Through my paintings, rich in strong tones revealing a three-dimensional relief that is accentuated by brushstrokes, I strive to make the imperceptible visible. An invitation to a journey between space, time, movement, and color, my work captures the intangible world of the unseen in a continuous process of discovery.

A Coming of Age Story for Grown Ups
SYNOPSIS
A Los Angeles cab driver, Jason Schuyler (Whip Hubley), is offered the fare of a lifetime by driving a local casino dealer and gambler, Jake (Robert Mirabal), to the Navajo Reservation in Arizona, the home he abandoned 30 years ago, to see his grandson compete in a Native American rodeo. But the journey becomes far deeper: a moving reckoning with family, memory, forgiveness, and what truly matters in the time we have left.

The High Desert Follies is a Taos, New Mexico–based live comedy and variety company bringing original, offbeat, and distinctly Southwestern entertainment to the stage.
Blending sketch comedy, storytelling, monologues, music, satire, and theatrical absurdity, The High Desert Follies celebrates the strange, wonderful, and wonderfully strange people and experiences that make life in the high desert unique.
Our shows feature original material performed by local actors, writers, musicians, and artists, with comedy that ranges from clever and heartfelt to irreverent and delightfully ridiculous. No two performances are quite the same, but audiences can always expect an evening filled with laughter, surprises, and a healthy dose of Taos weirdness.
At its heart, The High Desert Follies is about community—creating a place where local performers can take chances, new work can find an audience, and people can come together and laugh.
Original comedy. Local talent. High-desert weirdness.
Welcome to The High Desert Follies.

The International best-selling poetry of Daniel Ladinsky
by Daniel with Melissa LaScaleia
This poetry benefit will feature the works of some of the greatest poets & saints in history, who have spoken very directly at times about the wonders and our need of animals. And too, we will present poems that might help all of our "Stray Hearts!"
What is a stray heart? It is someone who has not laughed that day, danced a bit— if only in their eyes; or given to someone or something, via a soft sound, a kind movement! A sweet look!
In some ways, we are all such new golden birds in this world, our wings have yet unfurled enough to caress the cheek of the Sun. We need each other for that! And the great gift— and great value & utility in art.
Hope to see ya for the Event. And help us bark & howl & Rock! And raise money for a great cause! The furred angels!
SHOWTIME
Sun, Dec 6, 4pm - 5:30pm
All proceeds to benefit Stray Hearts.
