The Harwood Museum of Art of UNM rings in the holiday season and celebrates the beauty of Taos with Lighting Ledoux, a free community event on Saturday, Dec. 12, 5-7:30 p.m. The Harwood and other museums, galleries, shops and salons on historic Ledoux Street open their doors to share music, food and fun.

The event is sponsored in part by the Town of Taos and members of the Ledoux Street Association.
