Good morning, this is your Flagstaff Local Frequency for Monday, October 27, 2025.

Grab your jacket and a warm drink, because the high country has that crisp fall feeling and Flagstaff is buzzing with things to do as we start the week. Let’s kick things off with a few headlines that might affect your Monday plans. Yesterday afternoon, there was a bit of excitement at Sam’s Club on Butler as Flagstaff Police responded quickly to a fight between two men near the pharmacy. One of those involved had a handgun but thankfully did not brandish it. Medics also responded, and the situation was resolved without escalation. And over at Fat Olives Restaurant on East Route 66, quick-thinking staff and first responders helped a man who suffered a medical episode during the dinner rush. He is now stable, alert, and breathing, thanks to prompt CPR and emergency care.

If you’re looking for some fresh air and local flavor, swing by the downtown Farmers Market. It’s still bursting with autumn produce, home-baked breads, local honey, and handmade art. It’s not just a shopping trip—it’s where neighbors gather, new music plays, and the best breakfast in town is served right in the heart of historic Flagstaff.

For those feeling the Halloween spirit, the Spirit Halloween store at Flagstaff Mall is still open daily, so you can snag last-minute costumes or spooky decor. The mall itself remains a community hotspot, offering over fifty shops and plenty of places to warm up, grab a bite, and let the kids stretch their legs.

Art lovers, you’re in luck. Chiara Rose Skabelund’s new exhibition Searching for Refugia is open now through November 16. Her art, inspired by resilient life along the border, weaves together themes of hope and belonging, and invites you to reflect on how we can all be sanctuary in tough times. If you’re craving hands-on creativity, Jill Sans is hosting her Migration of Air and Spirit art workshops at The HeArt Box each Sunday through mid-November, exploring the power and symbolism of Arizona’s migrating butterflies and moths.

History buffs, the Riordan Mansion State Historic Park is offering volunteer opportunities, where you can help preserve one of the city’s finest landmarks and share Flagstaff’s story with visitors. Meanwhile, the Artists’ Coalition of Flagstaff continues to offer free art classes for U.S. military veterans led by experienced local artists, so reach out if you or someone you know is interested.

Sports fans, mark your calendars for the Northern Arizona University women’s golf team hosting the Clash at Boulder Creek tournament all day today and tomorrow. Cheer on our Lumberjacks as they swing for another record-breaking season.

The week’s fun continues with Bingo Night at Dark Sky Brewing tonight at 5:45, where all proceeds support local nonprofits. It’s a great excuse to meet up, play a few rounds, and toast Flagstaff’s giving spirit.

That’s a wrap for your Monday. Be safe out there, Flagstaff, and make the most of the autumn

Good morning, this is your Flagstaff Local Frequency for Sunday, October 26, 2025.

It is a brisk autumn morning in Flagstaff and the city is alive with events, stories, and a few headlines that remind us just how unpredictable life in Northern Arizona can be. First up, we're checking in on two brave hikers who had a harrowing experience atop Humphreys Peak earlier this week. Both men were struck by lightning after an unexpected storm rolled in, reminding everyone that the mountain weather can turn in an instant. The hikers were seasoned outdoorsmen, yet found themselves huddled together in forty mile an hour winds waiting for rescue, both surviving but with a renewed message for all: never underestimate the importance of being overprepared out on the trails, and pack those extra layers and gloves, just in case your hike takes a dangerous turn.

On a more somber note, the Coconino County Sheriff's Office recently recovered partial human remains in the Secret Mountain area north of Sedona. Recovery teams have finished their work, and while DNA analysis is underway to determine the identity, the cause of death remains unclear for now. Officials aren't sharing any additional details, so the community will have to wait for updates.

Turning to lively happenings for your Sunday, the Flagstaff Community Farmer's Market wraps up its seasonal run today at the City Hall parking lot, with fresh produce, handmade goods, and friendly faces from 8 a.m. to 1 p.m. Just in time for Halloween, Spirit Halloween is open inside the Flagstaff Mall, packed with costumes, decorations, and treats so you can fill your trick-or-treat bags or prep for the parade.

Art lovers, don't miss the final day of the Sedona Plein Air Festival, with artists scattered across the red rocks painting live and showcasing their masterpieces. The festival is one of the oldest of its kind in the West, and this year’s roster includes creative voices from across the nation sharing their craft and stories. Meanwhile, the Clara M. Lovett Art Museum at NAU continues its Prints. People. Power. exhibition, a vibrant show of printmaking exploring social and cultural themes.

Music buffs are in for a treat with the Wild Flagstaff Music Festival at the Weatherford Hotel. The festival brings together global musical styles, interactive workshops, dance lessons, and a few spontaneous jam sessions running from 11 a.m. to 11 p.m. It’s also totally family-friendly and free to attend.

If you’re looking for something creative for the kids or a hands-on activity, try the Mini Moss workshop at Plantae or the Creative Kids Painting and Craft Classes at Creative Spirits. For those into games and gatherings, don’t miss Game Day at the East Flagstaff Community Library, or for a night out, keep an eye out for events at the iconic Orpheum Theater downtown.

And for film fans seeking a little inspiration, the Northern Arizona premiere of “Wisdom of Happiness”—a heart-to-heart with the Dalai Lama—continues at the Alic
