Good morning, this is your Santa Fe Local Frequency for Monday, November 17, 2025.

Start your week with some breaking local headlines. After last night’s rain showers, we’ve got a crisp, clear morning in Santa Fe. The weekend’s precipitation was just enough to freshen up the air and dust off the Sangre de Cristo foothills, but local water officials warn the region is still running dry, so those conservation habits remain as crucial as ever. State leaders are in talks about stepping in with new insurance premium subsidies for homeowners and farmers affected by ongoing drought risks.

Sports fans have something to celebrate: The Lobos snapped their losing streak with a gritty win over Colorado State, rallying late after several costly turnovers to take the win home. The Santa Fe Cowboys wrapped up their season with a final loss, but the team claims its best record since 2012, giving fans hope for next year’s lineup. The energy was palpable at last night’s games, as folks braved chilly stands for some truly exciting play.

For those looking to get out and enjoy Santa Fe’s legendary arts scene, tonight’s a great opportunity. Local galleries are featuring new works as part of the city’s monthly Downtown Art Stroll. You can catch the new exhibit at the Ortiz Gallery, showcasing modern Southwestern sculpture and vibrant mixed media pieces by emerging artists. Many of the gallery events start around five p.m., so grab an early dinner and make an evening of it.

If live music is more your style, check out the calendar at Moe’s Alley, where tonight’s lineup leans into folk jazz fusion from some local favorites. Shows kick off at seven, so there’s plenty of time to enjoy a bite beforehand. Santa Fe’s music scene continues to bounce back with a nimble rhythm after pandemic setbacks, with more outdoor events planned as we edge toward the holiday season.

Community happenings today include a local food drive at the Railyard running until three p.m.—donations help stock shelves at food banks ahead of Thanksgiving, and volunteers are always appreciated. There’s also an open meditation and wellness session at the Santa Fe Community Yoga Center at noon, perfect for resetting your week.

Local government’s pace stays steady, with a handful of district court hearings on the docket, including the State of New Mexico v. Michael Dalton before Judge T. Glenn Ellington this morning. Residents with civic interests can monitor dockets online or contact the courthouse directly for public proceedings.

Looking ahead, keep an eye out for seasonal events gearing up across town. The Plaza is set for its annual holiday lights installation later this week, a cherished tradition bringing together families and visitors for winter festivities.

That’s all for today’s local roundup. Whether you’re soaking in some art, supporting our teams, volunteering, or just enjoying the clean post-rain air, Santa Fe’s pulse is vibrant and ready for a busy Monday. This has been Santa Fe Local Frequency. We'll see you tomorrow with more local updates.
