Heat wave got you down?  Never fear: Las Cruces has tons of indoor fun, too!  Check out our top picks for summer fun without the sun.

From stage to screen and more, the Rio Grande Theatre offers tons to do indoors this summer. Escape to the silver screen each month for a classic film series (August’s choice is The Godfather) or children’s matinee series (check out Happy Feet this July). And each Thursday this summer means live music with the theatre’s Thursday Night Jam Sessions! Keep an eye on the theatre’s calendar for special performances, too.
