The Rio Costilla mini-Studio Tour on Saturday, September 18, prevailed, with six exhibiting artists who opened their studios to the public. The day was lovely, the weather perfect, and a good time was had by all. Attendees were diverse, from Denver, Wichita, Kan- sas, Chicago, Minnesota, Wheatridge, Pueblo, CO, Texas, Albuquerque, Taos, Black Lake, and of course local environs, Red River, Costilla, Mesita, Questa, and Amalia. The total count seemed to be between 125 and 150 visitors. In Jaroso, Lynn and Jane Kircher report having around 60 visitors. Everyone followed health orders with masks, and respected the rule of only six persons in either building at a time.
