Picnic de Libros is a bilingual, family day program featuring storytelling, theatre, music, arts and crafts, dance, and picnic baskets full of books, for families to enjoy together. The event is free, and its main goal is to expose kids to the richness and variety of the cultural traditions in our diverse community. These gatherings will tickle children’s curiosity while using the power of stories to bring people together, promoting literacy, and nurturing the next generation of engaged world citizens. We want to encourage kids to read and develop a passion for books and literature. Culminating each day, we will serve a special picnic with blankets on the lawn and baskets full of books, in both Spanish and English.

The next picnic will feature:

• Puppet workshop by Colombian actress Danly Arango.
• Creative Stage Productions returns with its entertaining characters.
• The Spanish children’s play “ En El País de la Cocina” by the theatrical group Artefactus.
• Percussion workshop led by Mexican-American artist Nabedi Osorio.

Presented by Fundación Cuatrogatos and Koubek Center.
