The Currents festival runs from June 14th-June 23rd.
These two pieces will be shown at the Santa Fe Public Library, Main branch, from May-June. It’s an all ages show based on their reading selections this year (“Circe” by Madeline Miller), and the themes include Greek Mythology and Female Empowerment.
These images are from our cochineal dyeing day, and all of these colors were from the same dye pot! It involves shifting the chemistry from light pink to scarlet to purple.
We are excited to host eclectic multimedia performances at the Santa Fe County Fairgrounds! Performance schedules below. All performance events are free with CURRENTS Festival admission tickets. Please note, Sandbox Music is a partner event with and located at Jean Cocteau Cinema with $15 tickets (limited seating).
I am looking for an art assistant in Santa Fe, especially a teenager who would like to make a little $ this summer.
Pay: $15 an hour, probably 1-2 days a week but I’m flexible. Location: Private studio on the southside. Requirements: Preferably someone who is interested in art and has a reliable mode of transportation. We are also a kid and dog-friendly space.
Basically I need some help doing things that are a little hard for me physically, but shouldn’t be too difficult for someone else. Light dusting, moving boxes, prepping fabric for dyeing. I’m also more than happy to include free art lessons! We have the facilities to do printmaking, photography, woodcarving, marbling, dyeing, sewing/embroidery/yarn etc, Cricut, and 3D printing (starting in July). I’m probably missing something, so ask if there’s something specific you’d like to know about!
If their parents sign a waiver, they can also have supervised access to our woodshop and metalshop. My husband loves to teach welding! He also trained as a blacksmith.
We would need to do an interview first to make sure everyone gets along! Hoping to find a good fit. I will also be extra slammed during the CURRENTS festival, which runs from the 16th-25th, so may not be able to start until after that.

I was surprised and very excited to receive “Best in Show” at this years Members’ Show with Foto Forum. It’s nice to know that my tired mom art was seen and appreciated by other tired parents!
For those who don’t know, Foto Forum Santa Fe is an amazing non-profit photography space in Santa Fe. They have all the equipment you need to do alternative processes and work in a darkroom! It also happens to be down the street from where I grew up.
And since personally I always want to know how a photograph was made- this was taken and mostly edited on an android phone.
