- A paint-by-numbers style mural that attendees can help paint;
- Free tapas from Chala’s Wood Fired Grill;
- For those of legal drinking age, beer and wine provided by a licensed server;
- An all-original open mic from 6:45-8:00 p.m., with environmental themes especially encouraged; and
- Live music from an award-winning local roots duo, Old-Time Pharmaceuticals, from 6:00-6:45 p.m. and 8:00-9:00 p.m.
The event is hosted in partnership among Cruces Creatives, the Meetings for Environmentally Sustainable Agriculture (MESA) Project, Friends of the Organ Mountains-Desert Peaks, and the Art Gallery at New Mexico State University. The evening is funded through a grant from ArtPlace America.
