After two years in business in downtown Santa Fe, The Good Stuff (Buy-Sell-Exchange) at 325 W. San Francisco St., has just finished a remodel/renovation that allowed it to double the number of vinyl records it carries.

In order to keep up with growing demand, all genres of new and used vinyl, including rock, jazz, soul, hip-hop and reggae, are now available.

In addition, the store will continue to offer a selection of new and used clothing and accessories for men and women, as well as interesting new and used books.

Ken Kordich is owner of the business. For more information, call 795-1939.


Having opened in late November, the Rancho Viejo Art and Crafts Gallery, 55 Cañada del Rancho, has gone from three to 16 exhibitors showing a variety of media.

Acrylics, pastels, watercolors, ceramics, weavings, jewelry, metal and clay sculptures are all on display. Hours are 5 to 7 p.m. Friday -- coinciding with the wine tastings at the Village Market -- and 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. Saturday and Sunday.

This is an all-volunteer co-op where the exhibiting artists sit at the gallery for two-hour shifts. A few artists currently on display are Miro Kenarov (giclee), Maria Kenarova (ceramic), Charles Andrijanoff (acrylic and oil), Chuck Stup (pastel), Deb Stup (clay), Diane Solomon (watercolor), Fionna Buck (encaustic and watercolor), and Linda Diemand (watercolor).

The variety of work on display reflects the origins of some of the artists, which include Mongolia, Bulgaria, Germany and Switzerland.
