Friends of the Ruidosa Church is excited to announce our second annual Community Day on Saturday, November 5 from 2-7PM. This year the church will feature artists and performers from both sides of the border. We are honored to present:
An opening dance performance by Matachines de Santa Teresa from Presidio, Texas (2PM)
An adobe community altar by Jacquelin Zazueta from Marfa, Texas @help.ima.rock
Afternoon DJ set by Cariño of the Radio / Jacqueline Del Olmo, from Marfa, Texas
Latido de Luce, an illuminated installation by Miguel Valverde from Chihuahua, Mexico @miguelvalverde
We will also have free food and drinks in the afternoon, along with a special lighting ceremony at dusk / 6PM. For all who came last year, you know it was a rare celebration in a remote location. Visitors came from all over to celebrate both the church and the families historically connected to Ruidosa.
The theme of this year is “el sagrado corazón,” a nod to the original name of the church as well as a motif that naturally emerged across our artists this year.
Thanks to H‑E‑B, Big Bend Bank, TransPecos Bank and Cactus Liquors for sponsoring this event. Thanks also to @naomibensen for contributing the beautiful heart collage featured in this year’s poster. ✨
We are hoping to once again record oral histories from anyone who has a memory or historical connection to Ruidosa. If you’d like, please also bring meaningful objects, candles or photos to contribute to our community altar.
