Good morning, this is your Santa Fe Local Frequency for Friday, February 7, 2025. It's a beautiful day in Santa Fe, with sunny intervals and a high of 63 degrees Fahrenheit, perfect for getting out and enjoying all the city has to offer.

First off, let's talk about some of the exciting events happening today. Tonight, from 6:00 PM to 7:30 PM, STEM Santa Fe is hosting their inaugural Science of Giving Gala at the New Mexico Governor's Mansion. This event will feature a raffle, silent auction, short film, and curated entertainment, all benefiting STEM programs for New Mexico youth. It's a great opportunity to support a worthy cause and have a fun evening out.

Also happening today is the Downtown First Friday Art Walk, from 5 PM to 7 PM. Explore Santa Fe's world-renowned galleries along Palace Avenue and the historic museum district, and experience stunning artwork and creative inspiration. And if you're feeling crafty, head over to Paseo Pottery for their First Friday Pottery Throw Down, where you can try your hand at pottery, enjoy live demos, and support local nonprofits.

Looking ahead to the rest of the month, there are plenty of other events to mark on your calendar. On February 8, the Cancer Foundation for New Mexico is hosting their 20th annual Sweetheart Auction at the Santa Fe Convention Center. This magical evening will feature a silent auction, live auction, Dream Vacation Raffle, and moving Honor Wall, all benefiting cancer patients in Northern New Mexico.

Later in the month, the Santa Fe Film Festival will take place from February 19 to 23, featuring screenings, workshops, panels, and parties with industry professionals and film lovers. And on February 23, the Santa Fe Symphony will present Music of Latin America at the Lensic Performing Arts Center, featuring Piazzolla's "Aconcagua," Sierra's Symphony No. 3, and more, with guest soloists and local musicians.

In other news, the Santa Fe New Mexican reported on the bleak winter for snowpack, which could have significant impacts on our local water supply and outdoor recreation opportunities. And in the state legislature, a major gun bill is being considered, which would ban semiautomatic rifles.

Finally, don't forget to check out some of Santa Fe's regular events and attractions, like the Santa Fe Farmers Market every Saturday, the Railyard Artisan Market every Sunday, and the Last Friday Art Walk at the Santa Fe Railyard Plaza. And if you're looking for something unique, consider taking a ride on the Sky Railway, which offers tours like the Margarita Rail, The Stargazer, and the New Mexico Ale Trail.

This has been Santa Fe Local Frequency. We'll see you tomorrow with more local updates.
