Día de los Muertos is a festive occasion set aside to honor the lives of departed loved ones. The Tualatin Public Library is holding a family event to celebrate Dia de los Muertos with crafts, games, and food in the Community Room on Tuesday, November 1st, 6 pm to 8 pm. The Friends are supporting this program with a $400 donation.
Grupo Condor will perform Latin American folk music at the Tualatin Library on Saturday, October 8th, 2 pm to 3 pm. This group expertly blends the traditional musical styles of all of Spanish-speaking America with string, flute, and percussion instruments.
After the performance kids grades three and up will make their own pan flutes in a workshop taught by the performers. Preregistration is required for the workshop which has a limit of 25 participants.
A Friends of the Tualatin Library donation in support of Hispanic Heritage Month made this performance at the library possible. It’s free and open to the public; we hope you enjoy it.
Edna Vazquez will sing Spanish-language ballads with folk, rock, pop, and Mariachi influences at the Tualatin Library on Saturday, September 17th, 3 pm to 4 pm.
Vazquez was born in Mexico and sent to the US by her parents when she was a teenager. Since arriving in Oregon, she’s become a musician who performs original compositions that pay homage to her international influences with a passion that comes through in every note of her music. She lifts the audience’s spirits during her live performances with a vocal range that allows her to transition seamlessly between folk, rock, pop and Mariachi, all while exploring jazz stylings.
