"The highly-acclaimed Santa Fe Opera is often headlined in the summer months. These days though, downtown’s all-seasons Lensic Performing Arts Center, a nonprofit founded in 1931 and designed by Boller Brothers of Kansas City, is experiencing somewhat of a renaissance. Located in a grand Pueblo Deco style structure on West San Francisco Street, the 821-seat space, with Moorish and Spanish Renaissance influences, has hosted countless entertainment legends like Judy Garland, Claudette Clobert and the Trapp Family Singers. Having undergone an extensive renovation in the early aughts, the venue now extends to over 200 offerings (music, theater, comedy, dance) each year. This fall into winter season, a smashingly diverse lineup will include the likes of Beth Orton and her band; Mariachi Herencia de México who joins Grammy-winning La Santa Cecilia vocalist La Marisoul, and Cuban American Arturo Sandova." - Kate Donnelly
