Mexican Independence Day Fiesta: "Grito" Reenactment, Mariachi, Ballet, and Piñata Fun!
Saturday, Sept. 16 beginning at 11 a.m.
Join Children’s Museum Houston for fiesta, freedom and ballet folklórico as we commemorate Mexico’s “Fiestas Patrias.” On Sept. 15, 1810, Father Miguel Hidalgo climbed atop a church and encouraged people to fight for Mexico’s independence, which was then declared the next day. This “cry” for liberty marks Miguel Hidalgo’s famous “Grito de Dolores,” and it’s celebrated with music, fireworks and parades. Fiestas Patrias marks the Museum’s first of many events during National Hispanic Heritage Month, Sept. 15 to Oct. 15.
