Mountain Dulcimers have earned a place in our American musical heritage. The emigrants living on the American frontier earned the name ‘hillbillies’ because they settled in the Appalachian mountains. Musical traditions ran deep in these communities. They built simple, fretted instruments from whatever wood was available and the American mountain dulcimer was born and like many instruments, it has evolved to allow many styles of playing.
Sandia Mountain Dulcimers is a group of enthusiasts of all skill levels that have a passion for dulcimers. Led by Irma Reeder, their mission is to promote and preserve this versatile instrument which is largely unfamiliar in the Southwest

Last Saturdays on Harvard
2026-05-30 15:00 - 21:00 | Bricklight District, 143 Harvard Dr SE, Albuquerque, NM, 87106, United States
There’s a certain kind of Saturday that feels like a reset from the week. The sun is out, the pace is slower, and the city feels a little more like a neighborhood. The Last Saturday on Harvard is that kind of day.
You’ll wander a lively corridor filled with local makers, artists, and small businesses, each booth like a tiny storefront with a story behind it. You’ll find the candle you didn’t know you needed, the print that becomes the centerpiece of your wall, the treat you promised yourself you wouldn’t get, and then absolutely do. You’ll run into someone you haven’t seen in a while. You’ll meet someone new. You’ll leave with a bag in your hand and a little more joy than you arrived with…and here’s the best part: every time you show up, you’re helping build something bigger than a market.
Proceeds benefit Celebrate Albuquerque Foundation, and that support fuels our mission to grow a real network for creatives and small businesses, one built on education, opportunity, and connection. We’re creating more chances for local entrepreneurs to learn, get visible, build confidence, and expand into new neighborhoods.
This is how a city becomes more vibrant, more resilient, and more full of possibility.
So come take the stroll. Bring a friend. Stay awhile. Shop small. Dance with us. Feel the energy.
This is Last Sarurdays on Harvard!
