Trio Carillo takes the Old Town Gazebo stage for an open-air evening set in one of Albuquerque's most recognizable outdoor spaces. The gazebo's plaza acoustics are naturally lively, so arrive early if you want a spot close enough to hear the detail in the playing rather than just the wash of it. Admission details aren't...
Flambeaux takes the Old Town Gazebo for a Sunday evening set, one of the few live music slots at a venue that draws as many tourists as locals. The gazebo's open-air layout means sound carries unpredictably and the crowd tends to form in rings, so arriving early gets you a spot close enough to actually...
Zenobia takes the stage at Outpost, one of the few rooms on Central built from the ground up for listening rather than drinking. The space runs a tight ship on sound and sightlines, so wherever you land in the room, you're actually going to hear this.
RJ Perez brings his singer-songwriter set to Sawmill Market's central hall, which means you'll be hearing original music inside one of the more acoustically unpredictable food-hall spaces on the corridor....

The 45-minute runtime is short by design, so this is probably one piece of a longer...
Improv Theatre brings its Blue Show to The Box, an hour of unscripted comedy built entirely in the moment by a cast that has been doing this long enough to make the hard stuff look casual. The Box is a small, focused room where the audience is close enough to the performers that your reactions...
The performers take audience suggestions and build an entire Shakespearean play on the spot, iambic pentameter and all. The Box is a small black-box room where the audience sits close enough to watch the improvisers' faces when a scene goes sideways, which is half the pleasure. At 45 minutes, it's a tight enough window that...
Tina, a local instructor, leads a two-hour tie-dye workshop at this kava bar and community hangout on the UNM stretch of Central. The $5 bring-your-own or $10 buy-there shirt pricing...
