Good morning, this is your Santa Fe Local Frequency for Thursday, August 28, 2025.
Let’s start today with a reminder that Santa Fe’s pulse remains community-first. If you’re looking to have your voice heard, Mayor Alan Webber is hosting an open meet-and-greet at City Hall from 1:30 to 4:30 this afternoon. You can sign up at City Hall as early as 1 o’clock, and sessions are first come, first served, so arrive early and bring your ideas for Santa Fe’s future.
On the law enforcement front, the Santa Fe County Sheriff’s Office announced gratitude for the recent apprehension of William "Pato" Vasquez. The arrest late last week was handled by the New Mexico State Police, highlighting strong collaboration between local agencies. As safety remains top of mind, it’s worth recognizing these partnerships that help keep our neighborhoods secure.
If history and heritage are your thing, El Rancho de Las Golondrinas’ Territorial Tour Thursdays are today from 1 to 3 PM. Wander through the living history museum and take in stories of New Mexico’s territorial days—perfect for locals wanting to connect with roots or friends visiting from out of town. And tomorrow brings a special event entitled "A History of Healing in New Mexico," again at Las Golondrinas, running from 10 till noon.
Art lovers, tonight Aurelia Gallery is hosting "Icons of the Native Northeast" featuring works that explore indigenous identity in contemporary mediums. It’s an immersive look at Native voices and visions right in the heart of the Santa Fe arts scene.
Ready for some music and nightlife? Country and folk fans can catch Sam Barber at The Bridge at Santa Fe Brewing Company, with tickets still available. Expect a good blend of his memorable hits and new tracks. If you want something more eclectic, head to The Mystic for "Somewhere in the Rainbow Night" from 7 to 10 PM, featuring DJ Celeste Worl. It’s free, it’s vibrant, and it’s promising great summer energy.
Looking ahead, mark your calendar for the Burning of Zozobra happening tomorrow evening—a time-old tradition that ushers out gloom and kicks off Fiesta season. Locals and newcomers alike know it’s one of Santa Fe’s signature spectacles, so plan accordingly and expect plenty of festivities.
Also in the news, the downtown spa settled a deceptive sales case this week, agreeing to pay out $350,000. The settlement underscores efforts to keep consumer practices transparent and businesses accountable in Santa Fe.
As we recognize local losses, our condolences go out to the family and friends of Dave Warren, whose obituary is published today in the Santa Fe New Mexican. His memory is cherished within the community.
That wraps up Santa Fe’s happenings for today. Whether you’re out enjoying art, music, local traditions, or engaging with city leaders, there’s no shortage of ways to be a part of this community. This has been Santa Fe Local Frequency. We'll see you tomorrow with more local updates.
