Alicia and the Hurricane: A Story of Puerto RicoJoin Coquí Club, El Museo del Barrio’s lively bilingual program designed for our youngest visitors! Led by our talented museum educators, this interactive experience includes storytelling, artwork discussions, and a related hands-on art-making project.This month, join us for this special bilingual storytime as we read Alicia and the Hurricane: A Story of Puerto Rico, written by Lesléa Newman and illustrated by Elizabeth Erazo Baez, a tender story about a young girl and her experience during Hurricane María in Puerto Rico. Together, we will explore themes of family, resilience, and the ways we hold on to what matters most. After our story, we’ll get creative with an art activity inspired by the vibrant, emotion-rich works of Puerto Rican artist Candida Alvarez. Just like Alvarez layers color, pattern, and personal stories in her paintings, we’ll make our own mixed-media masterpieces to reflect a special memory or feeling—bright, bold, and full of corazón.It’s a joyful morning of creativity, learning, and community—perfect for our littlest museum-goers! Don’t forget your Coquí crowns! This event is FREE but RSVP is required. Space is limited—if you reserve a spot but can’t attend, please cancel in advance to allow others to participate.Each child must be registered separately. Recommended for ages 3–6.
