May 23 - 24th - 17th Annual Festival Sefardí
Festival Sefardí is New Mexico’s only annual celebration of the unique history and culture of the Sefardic Jews in the Southwest. This May, we celebrate our 17th year and are excited about this year’s program!
The descendants of Jews who arrived in New Mexico in the late 16th century, fleeing the Spanish Inquisition, known today as the "Conversos," "Anusim," "crypto-Jews," or "Hidden Jews"—constitute a significant but often overlooked portion of New Mexico’s Hispanic population.
During the weekend, an extraordinary group of artists and scholars will help illuminate this profound history, alongside its significance on New Mexico’s multicultural expression.
On May 24th Song Dog Relations will be co-facilitating 'Multitudes Within', a workshop on the paradox of identity with Evie Vigil at Nahalot Shalom in the North Valley of ABQ. Learn more about the workshop here.
May 27th - Bicis y Botánica Sunset Ride, Rio Grande Park - ABQ, NM
