¡Vamos a la Lincoln Park Zoo! Zoo Fiesta at Lincoln Park Zoo on October 11 welcomes guests to delight in the animals, cultures, and conservation efforts of Latin America. A play on “su fiesta,” Zoo Fiesta brings cultural performances, music, specialty foods, and animal chats to the zoo for a lively evening celebrating Latine cultures and communities. This event is 21 and up, so attendees can mix and mingle with fellow adults, or explore everything the zoo has to offer without children present. Included with ticket purchase, guests can get in touch with their creative side with Latine-inspired activities. OPEN Center for the Arts will be at Zoo Fiesta leading wearable art crafting sessions, Casa Michoacan will have sugar skulls available to decorate, and the Center of Peruvian Arts will be hosting dance performances and a workshop. Guests can enjoy performances by the Puerto Rican Arts Alliance Youth Ensemble’s The Latin Music Project and DJs will keep the party going with music all night long.
