Featured Events

On Wednesday, April 28 tune in for Noteworthy Puppets: Kid Zorro puppet musical. This bilingual puppet musical takes you to Spanish California and sets the origin of the popular masked outlaw against the backdrop of Día de los Muertos. Zorro must save the Mission from a corrupt politician and his diabolical plan! Will young Diego have the courage to continue his Abuelo's mission to combat social injustice? The link to Kid Zorro will be available on this page on April 28.
