Wayne Suggs is an award-winning photographer who has photographed landscapes for over 40 years. A Las Cruces native, Suggs was introduced at an early age to the wonders of nature by parents who knew the importance of having a relationship with the Great Outdoors. He captures the beauty of the Southwest and shares his images not only for others to enjoy, but to help increase awareness of the necessity to preserve our precious surroundings.
Suggs has won numerous awards for his photography, including the 14th Annual New Mexico Magazine Photographer of the Year, the Oliver Award for his work on night photography with petroglyphs. His work can be seen in national, state, and local publications such as New Mexico Magazine, The Reflector Astronomy Magazine, New Mexico Travelers Guide, and the Wilderness Society Publications. His work can also be seen in galleries around Las Cruces and the Southwest. Wayne leads photography workshops through Muench Workshops, Dona Ana Community College, and private workshops as well.
The exhibit will be on display at the Rio Grande Theatre August 4 – September 30, 2017.

The play is a thicket of ideas about theater, politics and morality. What is the COST of a government lie? The language manages to be natural, almost casual, despite the rich quotations of Shakespearean text and the characters debating the difficult question of how to remain true to your ideals, and the truth itself, in dangerous times.

The Episode four focuses on the reassessment of diverse ethnic musics previously excluded from American “folk” music, and their inclusion in a redefined “American roots music.” This episode describes the flourishing of Cajun culture in southwest Louisiana, the popularization of tejano music in south Texas, and the evolution of Native American music forms. Episode Four also rounds out the series by exploring the state of American roots music today – where the blues, country and gospel genres are now and where they are headed in the 21st century. Commentary in this episode is provided by Marc and Ann Savoy, Steve Riley, Flaco Jimenez, Edwin Hawkins, Robbie Robertson, Floyd Westerman, and Robert Mirabal among many others.
