Good morning, this is your Santa Fe Local Frequency for Monday, January 5th. Kick off your week with a burst of local energy as our city buzzes with creativity and community spirit on this crisp winter day.

Topping the news from yesterday's Santa Fe New Mexican, locals are buzzing about global shifts hitting close to home, like celebrations over political changes in Venezuela mixed with questions about what's next for international ties. Closer to us, scrutiny builds around a local official whose husband benefits from a mine approval, reminding us how decisions here ripple into everyday lives and trust in our leaders. Meanwhile, women are stepping up as power players in New Mexico's energy sector, driving innovation that could mean more jobs and sustainable power for Santa Fe families. And kudos to Santa Fe Public Schools for their reality-based financial literacy classes, equipping kids with skills to navigate real-world money matters from a young age.

Art lovers, today's your day to dive into Santa Fe's vibrant scene. The 12th SITE Santa Fe International, Once Within a Time, wraps up soon on January 12th at spots across town, including a stunning new installation by Maja Ruznic at St. Francis Auditorium. Her large-scale paintings overlay the historic St. Francis murals, blending the patron saint's story with fresh perspectives that invite you to wander museums, parks, even a cannabis lounge for site-specific works. It's sparking dialogues that connect our past to today's artists, making the city feel alive and explorable.

For hands-on fun right now, head to Chess at the Mall for casual games that sharpen minds and spark chats among all ages. Families with little ones, don't miss Wee Wednesday at the Santa Fe Children's Museum, where toddlers and caregivers play through weekly themes fostering curiosity and bonds. Artists, tune into the online watercolor class at 11 a.m. to kickstart your year with vibrant techniques from the Georgia O'Keeffe Museum's event lineup. Looking ahead, St. John's College hosts intramural volleyball this Saturday, perfect for some friendly competition.

These happenings aren't just events, they're threads weaving our community tighter, from policy impacts on your wallet to creative outlets fueling inspiration. Stay engaged, Santa Fe, your city's stories are unfolding now.
