FamilyPass

nowTHE CALENDAR MAY still indicate that it’s summer, but we can all smell that suggestion of fall in the air. It’s possibly just the aroma of roasting green chiles; but nevertheless, it is certainly starting to feel as if autumn is arriving.

Most of us agree that fall is the most pleasant time of the year in Santa Fe. The days are still warm, but the nights are cooler. In the fall, many of the less crowded cultural events begin; galleries report that more serious art buyers show up; restaurant and hotel reservations are manageable; and we can actu-ally take in a piece of art without having to look over someone’s shoulder.

Many think of the spring season as the time of rebirth. Instead, I think of the fall as a starting point on our cultural journeys. Students return to school; and school is not only for children. For example, I’ve noticed that many adults are beginning to take classes to launch their art careers. The dimming fall evenings bring with them a time to explore such new projects and inter-ests, without the temptations and distractions of long summer days outdoors.

If you have a passion, now is the time to follow it. If you don’t, let the passions of others lead you to it. Our city has so much music, art, dance, and other cultural activity to inspire us. Fall is the perfect time to be here in Santa Fe.

The New Mexico Department of

Cultural Affairs and the New Mexico State Library, in partnership with more than 90 public libraries throughout New Mexico, recently launched the New Mexico FamilyPass, which can be checked out just like a library book. Residents of New Mexico can use it to gain entrance to 15 museums and historic sites. In Santa Fe, that includes the New Mexico History Museum; New Mexico Museum of Art; Museum of International Folk Art; and the Museum of Indian Arts and Culture.

Roadtrippers and travelers will also find the FamilyPass handy at 11 other locations around the state, including the Natural History Museum in Albuquerque; the Space History Museum in Alamogordo; and the Camino Real Historic Site near Socorro.

“The FamilyPass offers an exciting opportunity for New Mexicans to travel and explore the cultural resources of our museums and historic sites,” says Ryanne Cooper of the State Library. “What’s great about this pass is that it allows entrance for up to six people. Since families come in all shapes and sizes, the pass can even be used by groups at senior centers or community centers.”

In town, library card holders in good standing can check out the FamilyPass at the Santa Fe Public Library’s three branches, as well as at the New Mexico State Library on Camino Carlos Rey, and the Vista Grande Community Library in Eldorado.

Zozobra The annual burning of Zozobra (“Old Man

Gloom”) is a unique cultural event staged each year by the Kiwanis Club of Santa Fe as a fiery and exciting kickoff to the annual Fiestas de Santa Fe.

Local artist William Howard Shuster, Jr. conceived and created Zozobra in 1924, as the highlight of a private party at his Santa Fe home. As part of the Kiwanis Club’s “Decades” project that will culminate in the celebration of the 100th year of Zozobra in 2024, this year’s Zozobra will replicate one of the figures from the 1930s.

Old Man Gloom is stuffed with bushels of shredded paper, which traditionally includes old police reports, paid-off mortgage papers, divorce papers, and papers on which Santa Feans have written about their tales of woe from the past year. Everything will be burned along with Zozobra, and the expectation is that the monster’s moans and groans will speed the end of all the sad tales, clearing the way for a bright new year.

The festival is one of the most anticipated events of the season, with visitors coming from all over the world to experience the celebration.

Schoolchildren on field trips arrive in the morning to watch the assembly of Zozobra and the crowd begins gathering around noon. Food and drink are available from numerous vendors. An elaborate performance that brings together dancers costumed as characters from Santa Fe’s colorful past begins the ceremony at twilight.—Carolyn Patten

Burning of Will Shuster’s Zozobra, September 4, gates open 3 pm, pre-show 7 pm, Zozobra burns 9:30 pm, $10, children under 10 free, Fort Marcy Park, burnzozobra.com

2015 Fiesta Melodrama: Intrigue at the Palace

Directed by Andrew Primm and written by an anonymous committee of Santa Fe scribes working hard to skewer the past year’s scandals and mishaps, this year’s Fiesta Melodrama makes a brave foray into the murder mystery genre, setting the stage for a new twist on a tradition that has unofficially opened the annual Fiesta for more years than the actors have been alive.

The melodrama features local talent including Cliff Russell, Felix Cordova, Monique Candelaria, Stephen Jules Rubin, Rose Provan, Sarah Milner, Amy Bingen, B.J. Stokey, Yann Lussiez, Mario Ulibarri, and James Griego. As always, the audience is encouraged to boo the villains and cheer the heroes, and the late show on September 10 will serve up beer and live music—along with half-price tickets. The melodrama will be dark on September 4, the night of Zozobra’s burning.—Carolyn Patten

Intrigue at the Palace: 2015 Fiesta Melodrama, September 6 & 13, 2 pm; September 3, 5, & 10-12, 7:30 pm; September 10, 10 pm; $10– $20, Santa Fe Playhouse, 142 E DeVargas, 505-988-4262, santafeplayhouse.org

Metalachi “We try to avoid thinking as much as

possible; it only gets in the way of reckless abandon.” That’s manager Eric Travis’s response when I ask for his thoughts on Metalachi’s upcoming performance at the Santa Fe Railyard.

But that doesn’t mean the five members of the heavy metal mariachi band aren’t innovative—maybe even brilliant—when it comes to impressing an audience. “We are always switching things up, adding new elements to the production, new songs, new bits,” Travis explains. “We are always challenging ourselves to push things further—like a mariachi cover version of the German metal band Rammstein, in German. That is happening.” It’s not all cover songs with guitars, trumpets, and violins,

though. At its core, Metalachi is a musical-comedy stage show that weaves together humor and musical dexterity with the power of heavy metal. “We are one of the hardest working bands on the planet; we are constantly out spreading the Metalachi gospel,” says Travis, noting the band has played at Florida’s "Welcome to Rockville" festival and on America’s Got Talent.“Our show is literally one of the best times you will ever

have at a concert,” he promises. “You will never hear Ozzy Osbourne’s ‘Crazy Train’ again without hearing trumpets in your head. You are welcome.”—Whitney Spivey

Aspen Santa Fe Ballet final season performance This summer, Aspen Santa Fe Ballet thrilled Santa Fe audiences with two

major performances, and is now taking to the stage at the Lensic for the season finale. The program features the world premiere of Silent Ghost, a commissioned work from Alejandro Cerrudo of Spain, currently resident choreographer at Hubbard Street Dance Chicago. The evening also includes 1st Flash, a much-acclaimed work created in 2003 by the Boston Ballet’s resident choreographer, Jorma Elo; and Beautiful Mistake, which Spanish choreographer Cayetano Soto premiered at Aspen in 2013.

Aspen Santa Fe Ballet, September 4, 8 pm, $25–$72, Lensic Performing Arts Center, ticketssantafe.org.

Barbecue Lover’s Big Book of BBQ Sauces

If you’re running out to the grocery store to purchase last-minute grilling supplies for Labor Day weekend, you might also want to pick up The Barbecue Lover’s Big Book of BBQ Sauces: 225 Extraordinary Sauces, Rubs, Marinades, Mops, Bastes, Pastes, and Salsas, for Smoke-Cooking or Grilling, by Cheryl Alters Jamison and Bill Jamison. “The sauces book took about a year to put together, but we have delved into this topic and developed our ideas and opinions over more than 20 years,” Cheryl explains. “This book is organized by the kind of meat, seafood, or produce you are cooking rather than by categories like sauces or rubs and also tells you if we think it’s a better accompaniment to grilled or smoked food.” Gabriella Marks photographed dishes in the book.

Cheryl, who lives in Santa Fe (Bill passed away in March), says that although New Mexico doesn’t have a distinctive type of barbecue—like, say, the Carolinas—it does have regional specialties. “Cabrito (young goat) cooked over an outdoor fire or coals would be one delicious distinction,” says the author and James Beard Award-winner. “Our use of our spectacular local chiles in rubs, sauces, and other flavorings for grilled and smoked food would be another.”

And when it comes to deciding which of the more than 225 recipes she likes best, “we love all ‘our children,’” Cheryl laughs. “I think the greatest strength of the book is in showing the breadth of possibilities with the topic.”—Whitney Spivey

IT’S GOT TO BE DANCEABLE, says Cathy Faber about the music her band plays at local gigs. “We keep the music upbeat and mix it up, so there may be a shuffle and then the next tune is a waltz or a two-step,” she adds.

Cathy Faber’s Swingin’ Country Band formed in 2010, although the current members—Faber, Dave Devlin, Laura Leech and Troy Rachau—have been together for barely a year. Leech plays upright bass and sings harmony. Rachau is the drummer. Devlin, who plays lap steel, pedal steel, dobro, mandolin, and telecaster, is what Faber calls “the lead everything.”

Faber says, “What Dave enjoys playing, we usually do. On the other hand, we are democratic. I mean, if someone hates a particular song, we don’t do it. We all want to have a good time.”

Devlin’s interest in rockabilly music means more rockabilly songs are part of the playlist, which also includes Western swing, retro country, and blues/folk/rock. At the band’s upcoming gigs, which take place on September 9 and 10 at La Fonda’s Fiesta Lounge, expect to hear a variety of songs by recording artists such Patsy Cline, Wanda

Cathy Faber’s Swingin’ Country Band

an eclectic mix of always danceable tunes by Emily Van Cleve

Jackson, Tammy Wynette, George Jones, Merle Haggard, and Ashley Monroe.

“I choose music that’s not top 40 country,” says Faber. “The only top 40 tunes we might do were top 40 in the 1960s.”

Faber, the band’s rhythm guitarist and lead vocalist, was born in Seattle and has a background in bluegrass music. She founded and fronted several bands in the Northwest before moving to Santa Fe in 2001. In 2005 local musician Bill Hearne asked her to play upright bass and sing in the Bill Hearne Trio.

“A lot of Bill’s music was new to me at the time,” she says. “I learned a lot of retro country music from him. It was the music he grew up with. I still perform “Wishful Thinking,” which is one of the tunes I sang with Bill.”

Faber’s work in New Mexico was honored in 2013 when her band’s album Lights of Santa Fe won Best Country CD at the New Mexico Music Awards.

LABOR DAY IS, FOR MANY of us, the end of summer and the last holiday before Thanksgiving. It’s a chance to catch up on things we’ve been putting off around the house, an opportunity to spend time with friends and family, and a reason to take advantage of all the cool things Santa Fe has to offer that maybe you wouldn’t have time for otherwise. Here are some ideas to get you going.

Start off on the right foot, literally, at the Hearts for Honduras 5/10K run. The ninth annual event not only benefits your health but also the Santa Maria de la Paz Honduran Mission Group, which supports the less

fortunate in Guaimaca, Honduras. If you survive the 3.1 or 6.2 mile run, refuel downtown at the Santa Fe School of Cooking. During a three-hour, hands-on cooking

class, you’ll learn to make taco fillings that include poblano chile and spinach, hot and smoky shrimp, chicken guacamole, and

salsa fresca. Pile them high inside blue corn or flour tortillas, and enjoy a perfect Santa Fe–style lunch.

After eating, wander a half–mile east to the Plaza, where you’ll find the Fiesta Fine Arts and

Crafts Market. Buy something sweet from one of the many food vendors, or treat

yourself to an ice cream cone at the Häagen Dazs shop on San Francisco

Street. Find a bench and people watch while you eat your dessert. Then, walk around the square and shop till you drop; dozens of juried artists and craftspeople will be

present selling their goods.By the afternoon, there might be a slight chill in the air, which can

only mean one thing: ski season is right around the corner. So head up Hyde Park Road to purchase a season pass (a steal at only $489) or discount card during the Ski Santa Fe Fall Gold Sale. While you’re on the mountain, ride the Super Chief Quad chair to the top of the ridge—you won’t regret the view from 11,250 feet—and hike back down. Or just play a few games of cornhole and drink beer in the base area, which sounds just as much fun and way less strenuous (this is a holiday weekend, after all).

Finish the day back at 7,000 feet at the Railyard, where rockers Metalachi will wow the crowd with their crazy heavy–metal–mariachi music (see page 5). If you don’t feel like standing, snag a seat on the patio at Second Street Brewery at the Railyard or the Violet Crown and take in the music from afar. Order a local craft brew and raise a glass to the end of summer.

THE DEATHS OF MORE THAN 200 million monarch butterflies after a severe winter storm in Mexico in 2002 had a profound impact on Santa Fe playwright Alix Hudson, who wove the butterflies into her play Our Lady of Mariposas. Set in southeastern New Mexico, this drama is about the disappearance of a young girl’s mother and the anticipation of the monarch butterflies’ migration through New Mexico.

“In 7-year-old Esperanza’s mind, these two events are related,” explains Argos MacCallum, who directs the play opening at Teatro Paraguas on September 3. “Esperanza feels she has to find both her mother and the butterflies, and walks out of school one day to find them.”

Hudson, a bilingual and special education preschool teacher in Santa Fe who wrote the play’s first draft in 2011, focuses on the interactions among Mexican immigrant Manuel (played by Jason Jaramillo), his daughter Esperanza (played by Maya Sanchez), his next door neighbor Kate (played by Liza Frolkis) and two of his work buddies, Dave (played by Tomás Rivera) and Eulogio (played by Daric Gutierrez). A single dad since his wife disappeared, Manuel relies on help from Kate as he figures out how to raise

memories of butterflies and a search for family

by Emily Van Cleve

Esperanza by himself. Dave and Eulogio provide a bit of comic relief in an otherwise serious drama.

“It’s the authentic dialogue between Manuel and his work buddies that drew me to the play,” MacCullum says. “I grew up in New Mexico. I know the way people really talk with each other. I think Alix captured the local idioms and the bilingual expressions very well.”

MacCullum wanted to direct the play last year but couldn’t find the right person to play Manuel. He was looking for a 30-year-old Hispanic actor and finally asked Jaramillo, whom he’s known for many years, to take on the role. “He’s doing an amazing job,” MacCallum adds.

Our Lady of Mariposas is presented as a memory play, with Esperanza as a grown woman (played by Rosario Roybal) recalling her life as a girl. Scenes take place in the apartments belonging to Manuel and Kate.

Five and Dime General StoreLongtime Santa Feans still call the Five and Dime General Store “Woolworth’s,” even though the F.W. Woolworth Company chain closed all of its U.S. stores in 1997. A constant presence on the southeast corner of the Plaza since 1935, Five and Dime still provides locals and tourists with all their convenience store needs, from batteries to snacks to office supplies.

The Santa Fe store’s greatest claims to fame is the famous Frito Pie seen here: a bag of Fritos corn chips doused in a mixture of ground beef, red chile, and pinto beans topped with cheddar cheese. Store manager Lorraine Chavez has cooked this concoction from scratch for 17 years, and says that when Anthony Bourdain insulted the famously popular lunch-in-a-bag in 2013, the publicity only brought in more customers.

Opinions and lore about the origin of the Frito Pie vary, but many in Santa Fe believe Teresa Hernández, who worked at the Woolworth’s lunch counter in the 1960s, was the first to make the “walking taco.”—Cristina Olds58 E San Francisco

Pattern, texture, and the messages communicated through texts and images are what interest collage artist Kate Rivers, who puts together fragments of maps and cancelled stamps with scraps of paper and parts from old books. Rivers says her work is “an investigation of memory, nostalgia, time, and space.” Some of her pieces look like birds’ nests, while other pieces are purely abstract.—Emily Van Cleve

GF Contemporary Katie Metz’s cityscapes vibrate with the energy of architect ure, movement and l ight

KATIE METZ’S SUBJECT matter is all around her—tall, imposing skyscrapers, bustling cars struggling to get through rush hour traffic, and bright street lights illuminating a path for pedestrians. Metz lives in the heart of Seattle and uses its energy to fuel her cityscape paintings.

“Sometimes people see Seattle in my work, but these scenes could be taking place in any city across the country,” she says. “The point of my paintings is to capture the feeling, the mood of a city.”

Several of Metz’s new acrylic cityscapes on panel are featured during her solo show, Eight Million Stories in the Naked City, opening at GF Contemporary on September 4. The process used to create these works is one that Metz came up with a few years after moving to Seattle in 2005.

“First, I put down layers of gesso and paint,” Metz explains. “Then I take out my bowl of razor blades and scratch lines into the paint. I use a razor blade like a drawing tool.”

Metz’s paintings have imaginary structures and cars that suggest human activity but are generally

by Emily Van Cleve

devoid of people. “I view the lights, buildings, and cars as the people,” she adds.

Cityscapes are a far cry from the artwork Metz used to do when she lived outside Boulder, Colorado. For years she painted still lifes, landscapes, and figures while enjoying a quiet country lifestyle. A decade ago, after deciding that she needed a major change in her life, she pulled up her rural roots and headed for the city.

For a couple of years Metz wasn’t sure what she wanted to paint. When friends responded positively to photographs she took of cracks in Seattle streets, she realized she had found a new direction.

“Sometimes I miss the painting I used to do,” she says, “but I’m really having fun with my cityscapes and feel I have a lot more to explore with them.”

Erin CurrierOften using trash to create her portraits, collages, and murals, Santa Fe artist Erin Currier has traveled to almost 40 countries, immersing herself in daily life from Nepal to Nicaragua, studying the languages and traveling around by foot or bus. She sketches extensively, documenting the people and situations she observes, all the while collecting the discarded items that she later incorporates into "the sheery joy of art-making."

"The more I travel,” she says, "the greater my sense of urgency as an artist to address social inequality and economic disparity through my work. Above all, I am a humanist artist, politically active and unapologetically narrative in my repertoire of practices, and for whom art and the social world are inseparable."—Carolyn Pattenblueraingallery.com

"My work draws its aesthetic and philosophical influence from the ‘Global South’."

Currier’s work is exhibited and collected internationally.

Ivan Dimitrovwoodcarver extraordinaire

Artist Ivan Dimitrov and his family left Bulgaria in 1998, where he says he wasn’t allowed to study at the fine art academy because of his political views. Since coming to Santa Fe “to find peace,” he’s carved and painted countless sculptures, doors, mantels, corbels, and pieces of furniture for clients including La Fonda on the Plaza, First Presbyterian Church, and the City of Santa Fe. Next up: a commission to carve “a magnificent screen for a tiny orthodox church on Cordova Street.”

For the past five years, Dimitrov has taught fine woodworking classes at Santa Fe Community College. “My class always fills up,” he says, noting that learning is important at every age and that mistakes motivate invention and growth. “The deeper you go in the ocean, you see how little you are and how many things you still have to learn.”—Cristina OldsSanta Fe Woodcarving, santafewoodcarving.com

Dimitrov paints with acrylics and carves the frames for his artwork.

S T U D I Oart

“I came [to Santa Fe] with 180 chisels, and now I have more than 500,” Dimitrov says. “I just bought another 15 yesterday.”

He favors basswood, or linden, for its softness and durability.

Dimitrov has more than 47 years of woodcarving experiene.

Greenberg Fine ArtWorks celebrating the convergence of nature and city l ife

VISUAL CONVERSATIONS between manmade and natural environments are the subjects of the 20 paintings featured in Greenberg Fine Art’s show Convergence: Structures in Nature. Opening September 4 and including work by Timothy Horn, Karol Mack, Laurin McCracken, Alice Williams, and Richard Weinstein, the show has a wide range of oils and watercolors ranging from landscapes with a hint of human occupation to cityscapes adorned with trees, flowers, and plants.

“We left it wide open for the artists to paint their interests,” says gallery director Bella Gaspich. “For some, the landscape is huge and man’s presence is small. For others, people and their creations are the most important parts of the paintings.”

Horn, a graduate of Cooper Union School of Art who started his career in graphic design, lives in northern California and paints throughout the Bay Area. He often works en plein air, capturing quiet rural scenes where nature is dominant. Also working en plein air is Mack, who grew up in ranching and farming country in Colorado and lives in northern New Mexico. She paints tall trees, winding streams, calm lakes, and classical architecture, striving to capture the light, mood, and feeling of an area.

A watercolorist who has extensive training in architecture and is a signature member of more than a dozen watercolor societies, McCracken focuses on things manmade and their relationship with their environment. People enjoying cafés and the hustle and bustle of city life interest Weinstein, who has traveled extensively in France and Italy.

Gaspich is excited that Williams, who has lived all over the United States and throughout Europe, has been able to ship several paintings from Provence, France for inclusion in the show.

“We’ll have a number of café scenes on display,” says Gaspich. “There’s been keen interest in these works at the gallery in recent months.”

Manon Pierme is on a mission to provide delicious, quality foods to Santa Fe and beyond. For the past year, Pierme has been producing handmade, artisanal Manolla by Senbi granola from her facility at the Lena Street Lofts.

Sold in 10-ounce packages, the granola comes in slightly sweet lemon lavender, chai, and rose chili flavors; and savory herbs, curry, and chickpea flavors. The dairy-, gluten-, and GMO-free granolas are available at La Montanita Coop and at Body of Santa Fe, and talks are underway with Whole Foods Market for even greater distribution.

Offering a tasty contrast from the highly processed, sugar-filled, and bad oil-laden granola on the market, Manolla is made with less than three grams of sugar per serving (from coconut nectar) and 12 grams of carbohydrates. “Manolla is a great way to get some needed fiber, protein, fats, and smart carbs, made mindfully,” adds Pierme.

The 23-year-old, who was raised in Santa Fe and Colorado, likes that her business sets an example for entrepreneuring Santa Feans, and says the small city allowed her to learn quickly and thrive. “I tell people I find it’s harder to wake up every morning and deny the passion that calls in your heart than it is to take a risk and see if you can succeed,” she says.

Pierme left “regular college” after six months to attend the Institute of Integrative Nutrition, and later completed yoga teacher training with Body of Santa Fe. She’s also trained as an Ayurvedic Self Care Educator and offers nutrition coaching from her facility.—Cristina Olds Manolla by Senbi, 1600 Lena, Ste A5, manollasenbi.com

Yarrow for healing and dreaming Common in southern Colorado and New Mexico, yarrow is a delicate plant with feathery leaves and clusters of tiny flowers, which can be white, yellow, light pink, or dark pink.

Yarrow has been used for centuries to assist in the healing of wounds. It is also known as militaris, from its longstanding use as a battlefield treatment to slow bleeding.

The tall stalks have long been implemented in various forms of divination among cultures in the East and West.—Carolyn Patten

Ronald Roybal plays each weekend at Hotel Santa Fe, The Hacienda & Spa.

Ronald RoybalTewa Pueblo and Spanish roots merge in solo f lute and guitar

There are only a handful of places in the world where you can hear free, live, Native American music every weekend, and one is our very own Hotel Santa Fe, The Hacienda & Spa. Every Friday and Saturday evening from 7 pm to 9 pm, with a special Sunday evening show this Labor Day weekend, Ronald Roybal entertains loyal locals and guests from around the world.

A solo act, Roybal alternates between Native American flute and Spanish classical guitar, each of which he plays to recorded accompaniment. It gets more solo than that, however. Roybal records his own accompaniment at his own recording studio, and then mixes, masters, and markets his music. Solo has been Roybal’s style from the beginning. “I have never played with anyone,” asserts Roybal. With 18 years and running at Hotel Santa Fe; more than one million YouTube views; multiple honors from the Native American Music Awards and New Mexico Music Industry Awards; and not least of all, earnings sufficient to pay the mortgage, it’s fair to say working alone is working well for him.

In his youth, Roybal made a quick study of great flutists such as R. Carlos Nakai and Joseph Firecrow; as well as Spanish classical guitarists John Williams, Andrés Segovia, and particularly Julian Bream. He soon went on to develop his own style—a unique amalgamation organically emanating from Tewa Pueblo heritage on his father’s side, and Spanish Colonial roots on his mother’s side. Roybal remarks, “I am a Mestizo whose destiny is tied to the 400–year–old drama played out on the stage that is the land of my people.” Even so, Roybal did not consciously set out to create a style that harmonized his indigenous and colonial ancestry. “It just happened over time. Like I’m mixed, I compose duets of flute and guitar.” Asked to describe his styling, he demurs: “You just have to hear it.”—Donna Schillinger

Skylight Santa Fe hosted Americana/country/rockers Billy Bob Thornton and The Boxmasters on August 13 during their current tour promoting their double disc, Somewhere Down the Road. They wowed their fans and won over some new ones, including Santa Fean Natalie Bovis, who knew of Thornton only for his role in Bad Santa. “Not only was the whole band good, but Billy Bob Thornton made every song a personal journey by sharing the story of how and why it was written,” she says, comparing his energy to that of Johnny Cash’s. “Very down to earth, he pulls you right in,” she adds. The group, comprising Teddy Andreadis, J. D. Andrew, and Brad Davis, said they were honored to play at the iconic Grand Ole Opry just after their Santa Fe performance.—Cristina Olds
