ARTIST BIO
Michael Vigil who was a well established and master printmaker. Through out his lifetime he taught Fine Art printmaking to Elementary students, University students and professional artist. His range of female subjects and sports related themes landed him a one-man show at Dodger Stadium along with a prestigious show at the Robert Mondavi Winery in California. His style was clearly his own, his painterly glyphs bold use of color and a combination of media. His work is characterized by brightness and illumination covering large spaces of canvas. He always considered his late father Veloy Vigil his greatest and most significant influence.

Adapted from William Shakespeare
Performed by Taos Children's Theatre
Prospero, Duke of Milan, also a skilled magician, is kidnapped by his scheming brother Antonio and set to sea in a boat with his little daughter Miranda. He washes ashore a magical isle inhabited by spirits of the air including Ariel, his special love, and lower spirits such as Caliban. He brings all under his power and dispells the witch Sycroax. As the play opens, years have passed, Miranda has grown into a beauty, and he longs to return to Milan. How Prospero conjures his return Shakespeare reveals in this: His final work, a fascinating, extraordinary play.
Taos Children's Theatre invokes the magic of the isle with bands of Fairies, joined by Goddesses, shadow puppetry, and shipwrecked royal beings.

The purpose of RHAR is to dive deeply into creating something truly based in this place. We do not expect our artists to produce a finished product, but to engage with the process, local artists, the community, and the land in & around Taos, ultimately creating something real and meaningful. We invite you to join us as we celebrate RHAR’s first contribution towards a more interconnected arts community and look forward to what comes next.

Interactive rehearsals are an open invitation for community members and artists to observe dancers in rehearsal.
Much as a painter would have an open studio where the public could walk in and watch them paint, we invite you into the studio to watch dancers create new movement, and to respond to what you observe with your own art.
We will provide art supplies for community members to use. No prior art experience is necessary and participation is art-making is completely optional.
Professional artists are invited to bring pencils and sketchbooks ONLY into the theater at the Wildflower. If you have other mediums you'd like to work with during the rehearsal time, we invite you to attend our interactive rehearsals at the Harwood Museum on June 23rd & 24th.

An exhibition on neurodiversity as a community asset exploring the edges between logic and instinct. Pairing Emily Harper’s hard-lined geometrics with M. Lind’s abstract chaos, they contemplate the inner workings of the artist's mind and how it presents itself in the form of similarly colorful process-oriented abstractions.
"Cat on a Hot Tin Roof" explores a family in crises. This intricate drama, set in the Mississippi Delta in 1955, unfolds on the evening of the patriarch Big Daddy's last birthday celebration. A web of secrets, repressions, desire and greed, and a struggle to secure an inheritance comes unraveled. This is not the Hollywood version, but Tennessee William's authentic voice and favorite play.
