Remembering Juniper Blessing
Remembering Juniper Blessing
The Santa Fe Opera is heartbroken by the tragic killing of Juniper Blessing, a valued usher and member of our Front of House team during our 2024 and 2025 Seasons.
We extend our deepest condolences to Juniper’s family, friends and loved ones, as well as to the many members of the Santa Fe and Seattle communities mourning this devastating loss.
At a moment when conversations around identity, dignity and humanity are so present in our communities and broader culture, the loss of a young life filled with promise and artistry is felt especially deeply. Sing free, Juniper. You will not be forgotten.
Out of respect for Juniper’s loved ones and the ongoing investigation, we will have no further comment at this time.
