Local Events

We have canceled the event due to lack of registrations. 

We're excited for our first golf tournament in Silver City to raise funds to expand 1-1 youth mentoring services in Grant County. All the funds raised stays in the local community and schools to ignite and empower the potential of youth. As you may know, 3 out of 4 youth who are mentored graduate and go on to college. Plus, they earn 15% more in their lifetime. Simply, mentoring works to pave a pathway to success for our Littles. 

 The golf tournament is scheduled for Friday, June 27th, at Scott Park Golf Links with a shotgun start at 9:00 am.  There will food, fun & prizes for all!  This is a perfect time to have fun in the sun, support a great cause, and showcase your business with different marketing opportunities. Please see the attached flyer for more details.

The town of Silver City will be hosting the Battle off the Badges: Awareness Games on Saturday, May 10, 2025. The event will be held from 11 am-4 pm on Pope Street, in front of Mick's 33s. 

Each year, every town Councilor is asked to do a project to celebrate Territorial Charter Day. Battle of the Badges will be the project for Mayor Pro Tem/District 4 Councilor, Guadalupe Cano.   First responders from the Silver City Fire Department, Silver City Police Department, Grant County Sheriff's Department, and Gila Regional Medical Center EMS will be participating in this year's games, with each department hoping to end the games with bragging rights. 

Promising young musician will play country and rock starting at 7:30 p.m.

Fans of live music can catch a special performance on Saturday, May 10, of Lordsburg singer-songwriter Ben Barry. The 17-year-old musical phenom is headlining a free outdoor concert at a new venue in town, Rusty's Grill, and it may be the last chance to see him play before he hits the big time. 

"We're really excited to put on this concert and showcase the talents of a musician who we consider an up-and-coming star," Sundi La Marca Hendrix said. "Ben is so talented, and we know he's going far."

 Barry, son of Jess Barry and Savanna Provencher, is a recent graduate of Animas High School. He's been playing guitar and fiddle since he was 10, and he has developed a uniquely modern style that's part country, part rock and part blues. 

"I can't wait to play my first show in Lordsburg," Ben Barry said. "I'll be playing a little bit of everything, so come enjoy the free show. It's going to be a great evening."

The event will take place at Rusty's Grill at 900 E. Motel Drive and is sponsored by The Hidalgo Herald, along with Elbrock Water, Hampton Inn, La Buena Vida Ranch, Marsha Hill, and Goldhill Outpost.

Light Art space is pleased to present Earth Matters, photographs by The Photographer's Eye: A Creative Collective.  The Photographer's Eye Collective is located in Escondido, California, and is made up of 16 artists from all over San Diego County.  Each artist has a unique way of seeing and hopes to inspire you with their image-making. Their commitment is led by the concept that photography not only enriches lives but can change them. 

Featured in Light Art Space's Flash Gallery is a unique spring exhibit opening May first.  Dialogue: Art andPoetry Speak of Spring, moving through the difficult present, will feature a conversation between visual arts and poetry.  Both art forms, created separately and later matched in either theme, image or emotion, will explore the contradictions of this very unusual spring, one filled with the joy of life renewing itself after a long winter and tension at the challenges presented by domestic and global upheaval.  By way of this expansive conversation, the work looks to discover new ways to express the old truth that life is ultimately and stubbornly about beauty and renewal.
