Santa Fe's Creative Community: Ponchos, Wildstyle Art, and More
Published 3 months, 2 weeks ago
Description
Good morning, this is your Santa Fe Local Frequency for Monday, January 12th, 2026.
We're starting off the week with plenty to explore right here in our community. If you're looking to get creative, the Museum of International Folk Art wrapped up its Family Mornings program this past Saturday with a special focus on cozy creations. Folklorist Nasario Garcia led storytelling and taught basic sewing skills as families created ponchos together. The program returns next month with new activities, so if you missed it, you'll have another chance to join in.
Speaking of cultural happenings, there's an exciting exhibition running through late June called Indigenous Freeways: Southwest Wildstyle from North to South at the Indian Pueblo Cultural Center. It's a dynamic look at art and culture across our region, and it's a great way to spend an afternoon exploring what makes our area so unique.
For those interested in the arts and our region's history, the School for Advanced Research is diving deep into the legacy of Edgar Lee Hewett with a lecture series happening over the coming months. These talks explore the complicated history of preservation and cultural narratives in the American Southwest, featuring perspectives from Indigenous archaeologists and historians who are reshaping how we understand this important chapter of our past.
If you're in the mood for something hands-on, there are several workshops coming up. Los Luceros Historic Site is hosting ranger-led walks every Sunday and Wednesday where you can learn about the site's fascinating history and colorful characters from its past. Later this month, they're offering a Straw Applique Workshop on January 17th, where you can learn about paja, a unique traditional craft.
And if you haven't experienced it yet, Meow Wolf's House of Eternal Return continues to be a must-see destination for anyone looking for an immersive artistic experience that challenges what you think an exhibition can be.
For the coffee lovers and crafters out there, there's a sip and sew gathering happening today at eleven fifteen in the morning for knitters, crocheters, and crafters of all levels. It's a great way to connect with fellow creative folks while working on your projects.
There's truly something for everyone in Santa Fe this week, from cultural education to hands-on creativity to community connection.
This has been Santa Fe Local Frequency. We'll see you tomorrow with more local updates.
