The library hosted a cultural event showcasing Mexican-American folk tales from Roma, Texas and a live local singing group, Alma de Mexico. Our Sister Library colleague from Roma sent some Mexican candy for all to enjoy. The event was a big successful with more than 30 people in attendance.

If you missed it, you can watch a replay of the event on our YouTube channel.
