Zozobra Night is June 3 2016 at Fort Marcy Park in Santa Fe

The Santa Fe Fuego are proud to ann

The Santa Fe Fuego are proud to announce Zozobra will host its annual baseball game and group night on June 3, 2016. The Baseball Game features meeting and planning for the upcoming Zozobra Burning which will occur on in Fort Marcy Park on Friday September 2, 2016.

For more information on Zozobra visit: http://burnzozobra.com/

The Burning of Zozobra is a unique cultural event staged annually by the Kiwanis Club of Santa Fe on the Friday before Labor Day as an exciting and fiery kick-off to the historic 304 year-old Fiestas de Santa Fe.

Zozobra, also known as Old Man Gloom (OMG), is the creation of Will Shuster, one of a group of artists known as the Cinco Pintores, who made their way to New Mexico in the 1920s. Shusters creation first appeared in his backyard in 1924 as a six-foot puppet, and over the years, has grown to a towering 50-foot high marionette. Made of muslin and stuffed with hundreds of bags of shredded paper, Zozobra is a dark and eerie character, part ghost and part monster, who was introduced publicly as part of Santa Fe Fiesta events in 1926. Since that time, the people of Santa Fe, families and friends new and old, have annually made their way to Fort Marcy Park, a few blocks from the historic Santa Fe Plaza, to view this one-of-a-kind Labor Day Friday pageant.
