History Tour | Kid-Friendly Garden & Adobe Presentations & Demonstrations | Fun Activities | Free & Open to the Public

Smell the flowers & play in the mud! | ¡Huele las flores y juega con lodo!

On July 18 and September 26, HSFF invites the public to tour our grounds and interpretive space, participate in hands-on and kid-friendly adobe demonstrations led by HSFF Preservation Projects & Programs Manager Jacob Sisneros, and explore El Zaguán’s garden with Santa Fe Extension Master Gardener Ruthbeth Finerman to learn about the delicate balance of maintaining a historic garden in a water-thoughtful environment. Participants will receive an activity book about El Zaguán’s history with illustrations by local artist David-Alexander Hubbard Sloan. The activity book includes sections and conversation starters designed to help children and their families discuss their home neighborhood, vegetation, and cultural practices and how these shape identity and sense of place.

For more information or to sponsor or volunteer for the family days please contact HSFF Community Liaison Story Coleman via email at story@historicsantafe.org.
