Yes, the Renaissance Arts Faire in Las Cruces, New Mexico is where everything looks so yesterday!

As someone new in Las Cruces, I had to check it out — the annual Renaissance Arts Faire happened to fall on a weekend and I had the luxury of time to drive to the venue and spend some hours looking at the booths.

…and watch a renaissance theater show.

Borrow a sword and pretend to fight.

Never miss the Renaissance parade.
