Sip, Paint, & Celebrate: Día de los Muertos Art Night

The partnership between Chicano Humanities and Arts Council (CHAC) Gallery and Butterfly Pavilion is a fantastic blend of art and nature, creating a vibrant cultural and educational experience. This collaboration not only brings our community together but also honors the rich traditions of Día de los Muertos while shining a light on the Monarch butterfly, a powerful symbol of transformation and migration.

At the Monarch Magic Sip and Paint event, you’ll have the chance to celebrate the Day of the Dead by painting your own masterpiece of a Monarch butterfly. This experience is all about embracing the cycles of life and death, the beauty of nature, and the importance of remembrance and renewal, all while enjoying a relaxed and creative atmosphere.

CHAC Gallery and Butterfly Pavilion have crafted an immersive experience that highlights the deep connection between cultural heritage and environmental conservation. This partnership is set to captivate and inspire, offering a truly unique and artistic celebration for our community.
