Family Culture, Crafts, and Cuisine - Hispanic Heritage

Our first Family Culture, Crafts, and Cuisine night in August was a complete success! We had over 100 people in attendance at the event. Children and parents learned about different Hispanic cultures, enjoyed a cultural storytime, and snacked on some regional snacks (Mexican soda!).

Thank you to everybody who contributed to the event. We couldn't have done it without you.
