The Voice of a Two Spirit presents artwork by Marcy Angeles, a regional artist who explores her life experiences as an Indigenous Two Spirit through her art. Angeles’ artwork presents her conflict of living within a culture and power structure dominated by white Christian men while honoring her Indigenous heritage and embodying two gender spirits within one human body. By embracing her Two Spirit being, Angeles acknowledges the continuum of gender identity and its expression through gender fluidity. Angeles’ goal is to heal herself from traumas she has experienced, and by doing so, offer healing to others.

Branigan Cultural Center, 501 N. Main St., is pleased to announce the opening of a new exhibition, “Illumination: Crows and Ravens,” which features artwork by artist Catherine Eaton Skinner.

Fourteen, large-scale encaustic paintings of these beautiful, intriguing, and intelligent birds will be on view from July 1, 2022, through Sept. 24, 2022. A gallery walk led by Skinner will be at 5:30 p.m. July 1.

Crows and ravens have been embraced as significant messenger birds in a wide variety of cultures across the world and throughout time. They are known as speakers from the underworld, guardians of souls, and tricksters who test human resolve.

Recent scientific experiments on crows and ravens show that they have an amazing capacity for spatial memory, social interaction, and tool use. Skinner embraces all these characteristics as she portrays them in her artwork.

Catherine Eaton Skinner is an artist who combined her background in science with her passion for art and spent 20 years doing biological illustrations. She has since become a multidisciplinary artist, embracing a diverse range of methods including encaustic painting, oil painting, photography, sculpture, textiles, and found objects.

Skinner has presented in more than 40 solo exhibitions, domestic and international, and has been included in numerous group museum and gallery exhibitions.

Skinner divides her time between Santa Fe, NM, and her hometown Seattle, WA.

The Branigan Cultural Center is open from 10 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Tuesday through Friday, and from 9 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Saturday. There is no admission charge.

The Branigan Cultural Center is accessible via RoadRUNNER Transit Route 1, Stop 1. For information, visit the Museum System website at https://www.las-cruces.org/1523/Museums or call 575/541-2154.

The New Mexico Farm & Ranch Heritage Museum in Las Cruces pays tribute to women making a difference in New Mexico agriculture with a rotating wall display in the central corridor.

The exhibit is called “Her Land: Women in Agriculture” and the new featured exemplar is 21-year-old Sophia Moreno of La Union, N.M.

Sophia grew up on a small, family farm along with her parents, Fred and Sharon, and younger sisters Monique and Nadette. They raise mostly meat, milk, and fiber-producing livestock, as well as horses. Sophia has served as both the Southern New Mexico Fair Rodeo Queen and Miss Rodeo New Mexico Teen.

An ambassador for the sport of rodeo, Sophia and her sisters also participated in 4-H, including horse shows, barrel races, ranch riding events, shooting sports, horse judging, wildlife, hippology, and parliamentary procedure. She received a horse judging scholarship to Clarendon, College in Clarendon, Texas. She is currently in the Ranch and Feedlot Operations program there and will earn an Associates Degree in Animal Science.

Sophia’s plans include becoming a veterinarian specializing in equine and bovine reproduction. She also wants to have a family, which she hopes to raise on her own ranch someday, passing along the skills, knowledge, and traditions that she gained through the first chapter of her life.

The exhibit will be changed about every six months to feature a different woman involved in New Mexico agriculture.

“Museums typically focus on the stories of our ancestors and their incredible accomplishments,” said Museum Executive Director Heather Reed. “We often forget to look around to see that history is unfolding right in front of us within our communities and our state. Her Land spotlights the amazing feats and contributions of modern-day women and showcases the young women working on the future of agriculture. This ongoing project will rotate every few months and will allow us to record history in real time for generations to come.”

The first person featured in the exhibit was Felicia Thal, a longtime rancher in northeastern New Mexico who passed away last year at the age of 92.

Hamlet’s a challenge for any actor, but when Jessica is cast as the titular character in a New York production, it sends her into an existential tailspin. It doesn’t help that every Starbucks barista with an MFA tells her she’s too young for the role. Or that she’s somehow managed to make Sir Patrick Stewart her nemesis. Not to mention the fact that she’s a woman. How can Jessica figure out “to be or not to be,” when she can’t even figure out herself? Featuring an all-female cast performing multiple roles, Women Playing Hamlet is rip-roaring fun for Shakespeare fans and haters alike.

This wickedly clever new play from William Missouri Downs, dubbed ‘a comedy about a tragedy,’ uses an all-woman cast to explore questions of courage and conscience in a modern setting, managing to both spoof Shakespeare and pay homage to him in a two-hour show that moves like lightning. – The Patriot News Harrisburg

With the colorful script and vivid characters Women Playing Hamlet is a slam dunk… – Kansas City Examiner

To encourage walking and enjoying the historic buildings in Downtown Las Cruces, the City’s Community Development Department has begun conducting “Heart and History” walking tours on the first and third Friday of every month.

The walking tours are from noon to 12:40 p.m. on those Fridays. The tours will depart the west side of City Hall at 12:10 p.m.

In June, July and August walks will be from 7 a.m. to 7:30 a.m. to avoid the heat of the day.

There is no cost to participate in any of the walks, and the public is always welcome. But individuals in the public will need to sign a release waiver before joining.

From the west side of City Hall, the tours will travel a route that will go north to Albert Johnson Park, cross west across north Main Street and then south on Main Street to Amador Avenue. The tour will then head west for a short distance on Amador before turning north onto Water Street.

The tour will then conclude by going east on Griggs Avenue and then north on Church Street before returning to the west side of City Hall.

Eight stops along the tour will include the tile mosaics and murals at Albert Johnson Park, at the southeast corner of Main Street and Picacho Avenue; the former Mama B’s building at the southwest corner of Main Street and Picacho Avenue; the Branigan Cultural Center, 601 N. Main St.; the Rio Grande Theatre, 211 N. Main St.; the Amador Hotel, 180 W. Amador Ave.; the former Doña Ana County Courthouse, 251 W. Lohman Ave.; Plaza Las Cruces, 100 N. Main St., which was the former site of the historic Hotel Rouault before it was demolished in 1971; and, finally, the Doña Ana County Municipal Courts Building, 135 E. Griggs Ave., which also served for years as Las Cruces’ main post office.

To encourage walking and enjoying the historic buildings in Downtown Las Cruces, the City’s Community Development Department has begun conducting “Heart and History” walking tours on the first and third Friday of every month.

The walking tours are from noon to 12:40 p.m. on those Fridays. The tours will depart the west side of City Hall at 12:10 p.m.

In June, July and August walks will be from 7 a.m. to 7:30 a.m. to avoid the heat of the day.

There is no cost to participate in any of the walks, and the public is always welcome. But individuals in the public will need to sign a release waiver before joining.

From the west side of City Hall, the tours will travel a route that will go north to Albert Johnson Park, cross west across north Main Street and then south on Main Street to Amador Avenue. The tour will then head west for a short distance on Amador before turning north onto Water Street.

The tour will then conclude by going east on Griggs Avenue and then north on Church Street before returning to the west side of City Hall.

Eight stops along the tour will include the tile mosaics and murals at Albert Johnson Park, at the southeast corner of Main Street and Picacho Avenue; the former Mama B’s building at the southwest corner of Main Street and Picacho Avenue; the Branigan Cultural Center, 601 N. Main St.; the Rio Grande Theatre, 211 N. Main St.; the Amador Hotel, 180 W. Amador Ave.; the former Doña Ana County Courthouse, 251 W. Lohman Ave.; Plaza Las Cruces, 100 N. Main St., which was the former site of the historic Hotel Rouault before it was demolished in 1971; and, finally, the Doña Ana County Municipal Courts Building, 135 E. Griggs Ave., which also served for years as Las Cruces’ main post office.
