There are three more Third Thursday events this 2025 season.

The Cortez Retail Enhancement Association, in collaboration with the First National Bank, announced that The Jimmy Stadler Band will be the performer for July’s Third Thursday Downtown Market on Thursday, July 17. The free, community event is scheduled from 5 p.m. to 8 p.m. at Montezuma Park.

The Cortez Retail Enhancement Association encourages attendees to make a full day of it, supporting the local economy by visiting shops and restaurants in Cortez before visiting the market.

CREA created a business directory for local businesses, which is available online at www.shopcortez.com/cortez-business-directory/.

The evening will feature community vendors, a variety of food and drink options and a space where attendees can bring blankets or chairs to enjoy the music.

There are three Third Thursday events left in the 2025 season. The first will be held this Thursday, the second on Aug. 21 and the last Sept. 18.
