THIS AFTERNOON & EVENING (5/16)! At 4 p.m. Saturday, the public is invited to join the SCHS Geronimo Springs Museum Board of Directors and local artist Chris Krieg for the official dedication of the museum's massive new exterior Truth or Consequences and Sierra County history mural, which Chris completed last month along with with his son, Will, of their company Altitude Murals.

CELEBRATING THE CREATIVE HEART of TorC's Hot Springs Historic District, artist and outdoor muralist Chris Krieg describes his 9-by-17-foot oil painting at 516-520 N. Broadway St. downtown, which he finished earlier this year, as a "little gift to the city. I wanted to create something that would evoke emotion and spark discussion." A few steps south of this mural, just across the back alley, there will be plenty more of the local resident's work to see and talk about this Saturday, May 16, 6 p.m. to 10 p.m., at "Chris Krieg: Enchanted Lands" β€” an exhibition of his paintings and several permanent onsite murals at Hot Springs Gallery, 517 Austin St. Chris will introduce his latest pieces and discuss his work, including the massive new historical mural on the outside of the Geronimo Springs Museum (recently completed together with his son, Will, of their nationally recognized company, Altitude Murals) β€” one of many striking Krieg projects that have contributed to beautifying and raising the profile of our city. Chris also will be applying his brush set and palette to a fresh, blank canvas for some live painting during the evening, affording a rare opportunity to observe the man creating on a more intimate scale. Joining the event is multitalented local artist Hieronymus Bogs, who will perform music 7 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. Refreshments provided by Pablo's Health Food Juice Bar. Admission is free!

A MAN of pioneering media influence globally, and in New Mexico and more locally here in Truth or Consequences and Sierra County, a legendary landowner and conservationist. R.I.P, and thank you, Ted.

Ted Turner, the media maverick and philanthropist who founded CNN, a pioneering 24-hour network that revolutionized television news, died peacefully Wednesday, surrounded by his family, according to a news release from Turner Enterprises. He was 87.

IT WAS SO MUCH FUN hosting Gene Simmons of KISS fame, actor James Franco, and the rest of the cast and crew of the upcoming feature comedy LOVE MEETS IN THE SUNSHINE at Austin Arts Retreat in November. The production used our premises for both general staging and filming. Looking forward to seeing the movie! πŸŽ₯🎬πŸ₯°

ROCKIN' THREADS FOR A VENERABLE ROCKER: KISS band co-founder, bassist and co-lead singer Gene Simmons, in Truth or Consequences recently as a film producer and performer in the upcoming James Franco / Nick Antonyan-starring feature road-trip comedy LOVE MEETS IN THE SUNSHINE, was presented with this signature custom-designed shirt by longtime local clothing retailer Dukatt '71 Tie-Dye Kingdom and tie-dye artist Jeff Dukatt. The Israel-born musician, the son of a Holocaust survivor, has entertained audiences for more than half a century onstage and onscreen. Simmons was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2014 as a member of KISS and, last month, was awarded a Kennedy Center Honor for lifetime artistic contributions along with surviving fellow KISS bandmates Peter Criss and Paul Stanley. (Lead guitarist Paul Daniel "Ace" Frehley passed at 74 last October.) Thanks for spending some creative and kick-back time in TorC, Gene!

TRUTH OR CONSEQUENCES, N.M., has been tapped by the long-established online global financial education resource INVESTOPEDIA as one of five U.S. spa towns that are uniquely attractive and affordable places for retirement. β™¨οΈβ˜€οΈπŸ₯°

Five U.S. spa towns offer retirees hot springs, wellness-focused living, and lower costs than many resort or coastal cities, making it easier to stretch a fixed income without giving up relaxation, scenery, or access to healthcare.
