Celebrate the hard-won campaign for women's suffrage here in New Mexico on Saturday, March 14 from 10:30am to noon at Making Change: They Won the Vote: Suffrage and Suffragists in New Mexico at the Special Collections Library’s Botts Hall. This free, all-ages event features Sylvia Ramos Cruz, a retired surgeon, poet, writer and women's rights activist whose ongoing creative work focuses on women's history in New Mexico. Cruz was inspired to research and write about the suffrage movement here and the people who took part in it by the centennial celebration of the 19th Amendment to the US Constitution.

City on the Edge is a breezy, smart podcast looking at the stories from Albuquerque history that have often been overlooked. Each episode takes a deep dive into a topic like the 1955 crash of TWA flight 260, Sandia Man or the 1918 quarantine. Worthwhile listening that will spur your curiosity about things you didn’t even know about in the city where you live. It’s free and available wherever you get your podcasts. (Clarke Condé)

Looking for a little chile? The 2020 Bosque Chile Festival, a celebration of food, art, and culture on the Rio Grande, is happening Saturday, August 15 and Sunday, August 16, with times waiting to be officially announced.
