Events on this Day

The Durango Farmers Market is a venue for local agriculturalists, ranchers and artisans to meet and share their harvest and talents with the Durango community. At our market you have the opportunity to meet face to face with the producers and learn more about their growing methods. Vendors post their farming practices at their booth and most follow organic growing methods.   Our market also offers hot ready to eat food from local vendors, value added foods such as jams, jellies and sauces and local artisans who make high-quality handcrafted items. All vendors must produce their goods within our five-county radius ensuring fresh produce and locally made goods. We also have live music performances each weekend as well as community information booths for non-profits and groups that promote our market values of local, sustainable and healthy living.

For 43 years, 9Health:365 has provided critical health screenings through thousands of health fairs.

Sorrel Sky will be featuring the work of Durango wildlife sculptor Bryce Pettit. Creating pieces that range in size from miniature to monumental, Bryce keeps his pieces reductive in style. The exhibition will continue through May 31. "I try to pare each piece down to the minimum necessary to tell the story. When the composition is reduced to only the essentials, the intensity of the movement and impact of the form is pure and direct." -- Bryce Pettit

Which plants improve hydration? Which provide a little UV protection? Which help counter sun and wind damage? You'll make a bedtime botanical oil treatment and an herbal toner blend using ingredients provided and that you'll choose based on your skin's characteristics. You'll also do an herbal steam during the workshop, and get to experiment with some basic toners, such as witch hazel and rosewater.    Stay afterwards to grab lunch and take in the spectacular view and warm hospitality of Basecamp, a creative plant-based restaurant with delicious dishes and amazing mock/cocktails.

Join us for a live concert and dance with musician/producer, Mose, coming all the way from Lake Atitlán Guatemala, with accompaniment from singer/musician, Lotte Walda, from the Netherlands. With support from DJ/producer, CodeStar, hailing from Durango, CO, with accompaniment from songwriter/musician, Innatú, based out of Mancos, CO. Includes community Cacao Ceremony held by Bubs Buselli. High vibes eats and drinks available from Alchemist Bakery. Altar space lovingly provided to evoke the sacred within each of us. Presented by Unison Productions.   $22 advance / $33 door   All ages. Children with attentive parents welcome. 17 and under free.    Beyond the multicultural rhythms and the steady hypnotic beat, Mose weaves ephemeral chanting of sacred songs and calls to love, kindness and compassion, often bringing in live musicians to create something improvisational connected with that particular place and time. He creates with the intention to set a foundation for self discovery and the cultivation of a present minded state which offers new insights and deeper clarity in ones purpose.   When he is not touring the world or playing special events in Guatemala, he spends his time going into extended periods of retreat and silence, only to emerge with a deeper, truer and more refined sound. He also supports other emerging artists through his record label Resueño with an intention to bring resonant souls together to create music that uplifts and inspires. The label transcends any particular cultural aesthetic and explores a universal vibration through weaving sounds and languages from around the world. It is also a vehicle for social causes as 50% of all label profits are donated to causes around the shores of Lake Atitlán to support members of the community most in need.  mosemusica.com   Dutch songwriter Lotte Walda is an adventurer, someone who lives purely to chase what her heart beckons. During Lotte's formative years as an artist, she explored music in both the biggest and smallest of settings: from various festival stages to busking in her hometown. If there's a recurring thread in Lotte's career, it's that curiosity always topples doubt. That sheer impulsiveness and courage to look for unknown situations led Lotte to all corners of the world. Lotte is most at home in the sounds of the sixties and seventies, music in which love and togetherness prevailed over fear, disconnect and selfhood. Everywhere she steps foot, Lotte disarms audiences with her warm, soulful songs, which, despite their feathery-light disposition, tackle major themes such as spirituality and reconnecting with nature. Lotte's message of hope is now heard all over the world: "Let It Flow" has now been listened to more than nine million times on Spotify.
