Bring Back Luminarias de Santa Fe!

The community of La Alma Lincoln Park is seeking to revive a holiday event called Luminarias de Santa Fe Drive. This event was once produced solely by nonprofit NEWSED CDC but this year various organizations and businesses are contributing to the organizing effort to bring the event to its former glory. This 2nd Friday in December many neighborhood stakeholders will once again host the event in an effort to bring more visitors and boost spirits this holiday season on Santa Fe Drive the home of Denver's Art District on Santa Fe, a state designated art district. The event will include streets and corners lined with traditional Luminaria lights with carolers, mariachis, a posada procession, a roaming Santa Claus and Aztec dancers going from storefront to storefront serenading and entertaining visitors. Santa Fe Drive is already well known for its 1st Friday Art Walk therefore holding the event on 2nd Friday will provide an extra boost to area businesses and give visitors another opportunity to buy locally. The donations will be used to purchase more luminarias, organize volunteers to construct them and hire the night’s entertainment. We hope you can help bring back this event that took place for over 17 years! Thank you for your support.
