This black-tie party benefits the scholarship fund for the College of Santa Fe's Moving Image Arts Department. This is always held on the Tuesday night of the Academy Awards, usually late in the month or in early April, so mark your calendar. The end of the ski season usually brings a celebration. Each closing day's program is a little different.
Skiers get in the spirit by coming in Hawaiian costumes.
Every Holy Week beginning on Thursday, thousands of pilgrims walk to the Santuario de Chimay , about 40 miles from Santa Fe. Christians, a few of them carrying wooden crosses, walk to this beautiful adobe church to repay a solemn vow or to ask for Christ's blessings. Pilgrims travel along U.S. Highway 84-285 through Santa Fe to the Namb junction at N.M. Highway 503 and then on to Chimay on N. M. Highway 76. The majority of the devout walk late on Holy Thursday and on Good Friday. Area law enforcement pays close attention to traffic to keep the pilgrims safe.
