Monthly Community Sound Bath - first Mondays* | 6:30pm *Holidays push one week, ex. April 13 (second Monday).

Join Douglas Cardwell and Lotus Sound Bath at the free monthly sound healing series at the Cathedral of St. John, downtown ABQ (Silver & 3rd). This event is held on the first Monday of most months (holidays may affect schedule) and offers a wonderful way to experience sound healing for the first -or 100th time, and to introduce others to the sound bath experience in a welcoming, contemplative, and beautiful surrounding with great acoustics (and labyrinth!). This is a secular event, FREE, and everyone is welcome! So, feel free to bring friends and family and join us to break the daily routine, unplug (to recharge), release stress and deeply relax with a unique instrumental meditation practice and gathering. We love seeing and welcoming everyone at St. John's! 🕊️

*Registration is optional, but helpful. Please arrive early! Parking and entrance on East side. Extra parking is available on street (Silver & 3rd) and in the adjoining lot to South, accessed from Lead Ave. Feel free to bring your mat, comforter, pillow, etc. to get comfortable. Dress warm in winter months. Floor space is limited but there is plenty of seating within the cathedral. Please avoid strong fragrances, and kindly NO recording during session. Thank You!

We hope you will join us! Stay well, ABQ. Namaste.🌸

A gala music and dance event showcasing the holiday traditions throughout Mexico.

This event is kicked off with Venta de Navidad a market of local artists, crafters and more, with great holiday gifts. Also, a cash bar, posole and bisquechitos for sale!

Swirling dresses, lively violins, and the sights and sounds of folkloric dancing accompany the clear peal of trumpets in our holiday tradition, Mariachi Christmas. Now in its 22nd year in Albuquerque and 10th in Socorro, the show rings in the holiday season with exuberant mariachi music and dance to represent the traditions of Mexico at Christmas time. This year's featured groups are: Mariachi Mexico Mestizo and Ballet Folklorico University of Texas, Rio Grande Valley. Join us for a colorful and entertaining show curated by the founder of the Mariachi Spectacular, Norberta Fresquez.

Mariachi Christmas has become a beloved holiday tradition right here in Socorro, a highly anticipated seasonal spectacular bringing together families and students from all across our high-desert community and beyond.
