Good bye summer camp, good bye Shakespeare... Helloooo MARIACHI!!!
Every new beginning comes from some other beginning's end. -Semisonic
The more I write about the things we can do to have a great time in Albuquerque, the more I love living here. Yesterday we spent some time at OFFCenter, they had a puppet show and a local artist playing the guitar for us. It was great, with great food and FREE... besides, you get to know people who cares about community building and I like that more than anything else. The staff is very welcoming, my kids have already make friends with all of them and enjoy being there all the time. The OFFCenter is offering a Kid's Summer Art Program during July; but during the year they offer a wide variety of workshops like, knitting, crochet, ukulele and guitar, puppets and writing and more.
Feel free to drop by and ask for more info @808 Park Ave. 87102 you won't regret.
And yes, I'm missing my Summer Camp and Shakespeare in the plaza... but I'm so ready for Mariachi Spectacular...
It's happening today and this is the information.
From 6:30 pm to 10:00 pm.
@Civic Plaza

Mariachi Spectacular
Get ready for Friday evening to be full of Mexican music, this event will last several hours in the evening so be ready for one of the most memorable nights of you life. If you love the Mexican culture, every song will remind you of a special time, either you sang them with friends or family and you miss those times, maybe you tried some great tasting food and listening to certain song fill your mouth with water or you're so in love that you just get your heart filled with every single note performed by those trumpets, guitars and violins. Whatever the reason is, please make plans to attend.
