Standoffs, home shows, and Puccini: Your Santa Fe Weekend Roundup
Published 2 months, 1 week ago
Description
Good morning, this is your Santa Fe Local Frequency for Sunday, February 15.
What a weekend in Santa Fe, folks. Just yesterday morning, our police wrapped up a tense hours-long standoff near Joshua Lane after Elder Omar Mencius-Yax barricaded himself in a home, firing shots and threatening a caller. SWAT and negotiators brought it to a peaceful end without injuries, booking him on aggravated assault and related charges by 7 a.m. The neighborhood's back to normal, a reminder of how our first responders keep us safe amid the unexpected.
Shifting to brighter news, today's the final day of the free Santa Fe Home and Lifestyle Show at the Community Convention Center, running till 4 p.m. Swing by for hands-on demos, expert tips on renovations, and deals from local vendors—perfect if you're dreaming of sprucing up your adobe before spring hits. Over at the Railyard, the Artisan Market buzzes from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. at the Farmers Market Pavilion, brimming with handmade crafts that capture our Southwestern soul.
Art lovers, catch Janet Russek and David Scheinbaum's Giverny exhibit at Pie Projects all day, blending photography with impressionist vibes that feel right at home in our light-drenched city. And for cinephiles, the Center for Contemporary Arts screens Before Sunset at 5 p.m., that poignant sequel where old flames reconnect in Paris—timely romance after Valentine's. Families, head to the Santa Fe Botanical Garden for a bird-feeding walk celebrating National Bird Feeding Month; registration's recommended to spot our feathered locals up close.
Music calls too: Gruet Winery hosts a Valentine's Feast extension till 9 p.m., pairing bubbly with feasts that make every day feel special. And don't miss Opera on Screen's La Bohème at CCA starting at 6 p.m., a free screening of Puccini's bohemian tale straight from the Santa Fe Opera.
Looking ahead, lawmakers in Santa Fe passed key healthcare bills this week, like HB 99 tweaking malpractice caps to lure more doctors here, easing wait times for all of us. HB 66 boosts loan repayments to keep providers rooted in New Mexico, and HB 306 nixes sneaky facility fees on telehealth—real wins lowering your costs.
Events keep rolling: Romance and Rhapsody with pianist Olga Kern at Lensic tomorrow at 4 p.m., Nick Offerman's woodsy comedy Tuesday, and more jazz, metal, and queer nights at The Mystic. Hit the Railyard Tuesday Market or Last Friday Art Walk soon.
This has been Santa Fe Local Frequency. We'll see you tomorrow with more local updates.
