Cinco de Mayo! Is this the date when Mexico
celebrates independence? Learn the true history
behind the often-misunderstood holiday… What does
Cinco de Mayo mean to Mexicans and to the US?
When did the celebration start?
The story will be presented in both Spanish and English. This is a great opportunity for those looking to practice their Spanish; all Spanish levels are welcome to join in!
Registration is required. Registration will open on April 1.
This program is supported in part by a grant from the Medford Arts Council, a local commission that is supported by the Massachusetts Cultural Council and the City of Medford.
Please note, when someone does not show up for a program they are registered for, they are taking away an opportunity for another member of the community. Patrons who are registered for an event they cannot attend are asked to cancel their registration at least 24 hours in advance. Failure to show up for programs two (2) times without notice will be grounds for being waitlisted for 90 days. Patrons who arrive 10 minutes or more after the program start time will be considered no-shows. They may be denied access after that time, and their spot may be given away to people on the waiting list.
