The mission of The Second Saturday Community CoffeeHouse is to provide the East Mountains with a quality musical experience in a family-style, listening room environment where new and seasoned performers can offer up their songs and stories to an attentive, all-ages audience.
A saying often attributed to John Lennon is
“Everything will be OK in the end. If it’s not OK, it’s not the end.”
For 2021 we would like to say the following:
The Second Saturday Community Coffeehouse was launched in April of 2014, and ever since has been presenting many great performers to our East Mountain community. However, in March 2020 COVID-19 made it to New Mexico, signaling our last live show in the beautifully remodeled Woods End sanctuary in Edgewood, New Mexico. Since that time, the Second Saturday Community Coffeehouse has been bringing virtual monthly performances to our loyal fans and beyond, thanks to Facebook and modern technology.
However, along the way the “Community” portion of our identity has been lost. “Community” happens when we can all sit in front of the stage and exchange energy with the performance, building excitement for both our audience and performers. Consequently, a collective decision has been made to suspend our operations until we can once again bring live performances back, where we can laugh, drink coffee, snack, and listen to the finest music West of the Pecos.
So, in 2021, sit back and relax, but do everything you can to send COVID-19 packing. We’ll let you know when our live shows are back again, but in the meantime don’t forget you can relive our past shows at any time by visiting our Facebook page, finding the “Videos” tab, clicking on “See All,” and then clicking on the show you want to watch. It’s that easy! Finally, on the Videos page you will find the Donate button. Whenever and whatever you can give, it will help the Second Saturday Community CoffeeHouse bring our live shows back.
Thank you all for your patronage and your love and support over the years.
We’ll see you ----- when we can see you again!

The Second Saturday Community CoffeeHouse was founded in June 2014 with the mission of bringing live music to the small central New Mexico town of Edgewood and the surrounding East Mountains area. The CoffeeHouse features outstanding local and regional singer/songwriters and musical groups, not to mention the occasional magician, poet or puppeteer. Of course, the CoffeeHouse wouldn’t be a coffeehouse without an assortment of gourmet and specialty coffees, teas, water, and both sweet and salty snacks. The CoffeeHouse atmosphere is casual, family-friendly, and best of all, it’s all FREE! Of course, we do "pass the hat" for donations to help us pay for the coffee, snacks, and most of all, the Musicians!
Our concerts are always on the second Saturday of the month, so our name says it all. The doors open at 6:00 pm, and the performance starts at 6:30 pm. The Second Saturday Community CoffeeHouse, a non-affiliated, non-religious event, is held every second Saturday of the month (of course!), and we thank the woodsEnd church in Edgewood for providing their space for our shows. It's a beautiful venue that is smoke-free and alcohol-free, geared toward families, and a favorite performance space for the musicians and other performers in our community. We hope that you can join us each and every month for fine entertainment in our wonderful community of Edgewood. Are you a performer?
