❤️ Local Events November 28th

TOGETHER WITH FEATURED PARTNER

Hello {{First Name|Las Cruces}}, so glad you are here. Thanks for being a subscriber! Happy Holidays!

Tomorrow is one of the biggest days of the year for local businesses.

Saturday November 29th is Small Business Saturday and many local businesses in Las Cruces and Mesilla will be having events and sales. Check this page for some cool businesses to visit on Las Cruces Small Business Saturday.

When you spend a dollar at an independent business, significantly more of it stays right here — paying local wages, supporting Little League teams, keeping our downtown lights on, and making sure Las Cruces stays Las Cruces.

It’s not about guilt; it’s about getting better gifts, better food, and a better Saturday knowing that you helped a local business.

All four of the Las Cruces Museums will be closed on Thursday, November 27 and Friday, November 28. They will reopen on Saturday, November 29.

Most all City and County offices will be closed today.

Check our Online Events Calendar for even more events.

Live Music: Check out the latest Live Music issues.

Don’t do Facebook? No worries! We do the clicking and screenshots so you don’t miss a single event. It’s a little extra work on our end, but sharing Las Cruces happenings is our favorite kind of busy work!

Any updates or corrections will be reflected in the online version.
