Face painting, hair decorations and smiles were evident at the first annual Zona Fest at Zona del Sol, the non-profit consortium across the street from the Southside Branch Library. The family community day was organized by Zona del Sol in partnership with the Library. The Friends of the Library brought Mike Barnes, face painter extraordinaire, Wise Fool stilt walkers and Fungara, a youth marimba band, to the celebration as a part of their commitment to the Library and the community. The Library hosted close to 15 table featuring non-profits who serve the Tierra Contenta neighborhood, everything from Hawks Aloft to Soccer groups to Karate to Rape Crisis and Trauma Center, Santa Fe Community College and Service Dogs.
It was hot, hot, hot, but kids and families came to check out the tents and other festivities. Over 150 people came to see the Clan Tynker performance at 5:30 p.m.—a perfect show to end the day.
