Good morning, this is your Santa Fe Local Frequency for Thursday, August 14, 2025. It’s a lively day in the City Different, with plenty going on across town and in the region, so let’s kick things off with a look at what’s happening in our community and how it affects us all.Santa Fe is buzzing this morning after yesterday’s major announcement from the Governor’s office. In response to a serious surge of violent crime and drug activity in the Española and Rio Arriba County area, just north of Santa Fe, Governor Michelle Lujan Grisham has declared a state of emergency. Local police calls in Española have more than doubled in the last two years and overdose rates are the highest in New Mexico, hitting families and neighborhoods hard. An emergency fund of up to $750,000 will boost law enforcement overtime and support, all aimed at restoring stability and public safety not only in those communities but also for Santa Feans who have family, business, or ties north of town. Our hearts go out to those impacted, and we’ll keep you posted as the situation evolves.Let’s turn to brighter things happening right here in Santa Fe today, starting with some family fun. If you want to get the kids out of the house this morning, head over to the Santa Fe Children’s Museum for “Seeds and Sprouts” at 10:30. It’s a playful, hands-on morning where little ones learn about gardening and nature. Stick around and you can jump into their Wheel-Throwing Pottery Experience just after noon. For animal lovers, the St. Francis Auditorium hosts an Animal Meet and Greet at noon, a friendly way to learn about our furry and feathered friends.Art also takes center stage in Santa Fe, as always. Check out the brand new exhibit “We Are The People,” featuring works by L. Scooter Morris at Aurelia Gallery. If you want a living, breathing art experience, grab a spot at the Exodus Ensemble’s immersive new show “Cyrano” tonight at 7 at the Center for Contemporary Arts. Remember, seats are limited and tickets run on a donation basis, so it’s as inclusive as it gets.Music fans, tonight brings something special. Darrin Kobetich, known for his dazzling fingerstyle guitar, plays a free show at The Mystic on Cerrillos Road starting at 8. You can wander in for amazing live music, sample their dinner menu, and sip craft cocktails or coffee at the cozy bar. Parking is easiest at Big 5 Sporting Goods or on nearby Clark Road, so plan ahead.Santa Fe wouldn’t be Santa Fe without its eclectic, creative pop-ups. Artist collective Hosh Artists and Tender Fire Kitchen are teaming up tonight from 6 to 9 at El Rey Court, promising a blend of art, food, and conversation with some of the city’s most dynamic creators.If you’re up for a bit of wonder, Meow Wolf’s House of Eternal Return continues to offer its multi-sensory adventure all day, with special family-friendly activities and performances.That’s your rundown for this Thursday.
