Dona Ana County Renaissance ArtsFaire returns to Las Cruces November 6-7

LAS CRUCES, NM – The Doña Ana Arts Council is preparing for the return of the Renaissance ArtsFaire in the person of Young Park in Las Cruces on November 6-7 this year. This is the 50th year of the Council and RenFaire, and 2021 is the “Year of the Artist”.

Many well-known activities and providers will return, but there will also be new ones that stimulate the mind and fascinate the mind. Instead of a marmot, there was a medieval magic forecast that the weather would be breathtakingly beautiful.

“We ask for your esteemed company at this year’s fair!” is the invitation of the Doña Ana Arts Council.

Single tickets are $ 10, but two tickets can be purchased in advance of the show for $ 15. From around the Ides (middle of the month) in September, tickets are available in all Pic Quik shops or online at daarts.org.

The Arts Council supports and promotes the arts both as part of a thriving creative economy and as a source of community pride. The meetings of the DAAC board take place on the fourth Thursday of most months. For more information, please contact Executive Director Greg Smith at 575-523-6403.
