100th Zozobra in Santa Fe

New Mexico in Focus (A Production of NMPBS)

In an extra podcast episode from New Mexico in Focus, we're looking ahead to this Friday’s 100th Zozobra in Santa Fe. Every year tens of thousands of New Mexicans gather in Fort Marcy Park to burn away their gloom – in the form of a 50-foot monster names Old Man Gloom. The event is put on each year by the Kiwanis Club of Santa Fe led by event chair Ray Sandoval. Lou DiVizio speaks with Ray Tuesday for a look ahead at what people can expect for this special centennial celebration.
