Join us for Cantigny de Noche, our weekly “after hours” series featuring illuminated Art in the Park, activities, entertainment and refreshments.
Here’s the lineup for Wednesday, August 24:
Visitors Center
A guided Alebrijes walking tour conducted entirely in Spanish.
La caminata guiada cuenta con un pulpo gigante llamado Octavio y otras 48 criaturas fantásticas exhibidas en los jardines. Durante el recorrido, descubrirás la inspiración que hay detrás de cada escultura así como su elaboración e información de los seis artistas de la Ciudad de México que las crearon.
Step into the dream world of Cantigny Park’s summer art exhibit on one of this guided tour. Learn about the inspiration behind the sculptures and the methods used to create them.
We recommend brining a flashlight for the illuminated art walk, as not all areas of the garden are lit.
Visitors Center
Emilee Peterson, professional Ballroom and Latin Dancer will be giving free Salsa Dancing lessons in front of the Visitors Center. These mini-classes will run every 15 minutes. Music will be provided by DJ Kimani Rashad with Afro Caribbean Connections.
Grab ice cream at Bertie’s and a souvenir in the Gift Shop.
Bar Service: Beer, wine & specialty drink
