September 16 marks Mexico’s independence from Spain, and Mexicans celebrate with parades, festivals, and feasts. In honor of the Huichol and Tepehuan Indians of western Mexico, we will make an “Eye of God” or Ojo de Dios with wooden sticks and yarn. The program is designed for children, ages 5-12, with an adult. $3 per child for non-members, $2 for members. Call 847-391-5399 for more details.
