Come One, Come ALL…To a Celebration of Cultures!

We are excited and looking forward to a newly reimagined Renaissance Faire. This year, the theme of the 52nd ArtsFaire is “Reimagining the Renaissance,” and there could well be visitors from even more time periods and multicultural representation. This year we continue encouraging Renaissance Fashion. New and reimagined this year, we are encouraging a celebration of cultures. Multicultural fashion is encouraged. Represent your cultura, your heritage. Let’s celebrate the beauty of diversity in Doña Ana County.

Our vendors are encouraged to decorate their booths in Renaissance or represent a Culture of your choice.

Traditional acts will still be seen this year though, a wide range of musical performances and acts on several stages, jousting and sword play, regal processions, fun food, and wonderful art. The Doña Ana Arts Council is urging the community and visitors from afar to come again to Young Park in Las Cruces and participate in the celebration of knowledge, the arts, diversity, culture, and fun.

The iconic event will be in Young Park on Saturday, November 4, from 10:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., and on Sunday, November 5, from 10:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m.. There will be adult beverages at the Dragon’s Eye Tavern, as well as milder refreshments around the park.

We would be honored with your presence.

Guests at this year’s Renaissance ArtsFaire are encouraged to wear their Renaissance time period attire or any attire representing the diversity of cultures in Doña Ana County.

No dogs allowed. Service dogs are welcome.
