About this event


Join us for a celebration of Hispanic Heritage Month by learning about the history, production and impact of chocolate on our culture.

Taking place in the Italian Market neighborhood around the Chocolate Galeria Arts and Crafts store, there will be a demonstration of the grinding of cacao, with a Mariachi singer, a troupe of Mexican dancers performing an Aztec ceremony, and a recorded lecture by a distinguished anthropologist from Yale on the pre-Colombian origins of this special product of the Americas.

This is a free, outdoor event, and masks are required.
