Lawndale News Chicago's Bilingual Newspaper - Local News

End summer on a high note with Lyric Opera of Chicago’s first-of-its-kind Art-See Jamboree on Sunday, August 25, from 11a.m. to 2p.m.  Art-See Jamboree is a free child-oriented event that has it all—art, reading, music, giveaways, and more. Guests can enjoy spending the day with loved ones before the annual Sunday in the Park with Lyric event the same evening in the Jay Pritzker Pavilion in Millennium Park. All of the Art-See Jamboree activities will take place under the event tent located just east of the Pavilion, toward the lake. Art-See Jamboree offers fun activities for all ages. Starting at 11:30 a.m., storyteller Jasmin Cardenas will present an interpretation of Frida Kahlo and the Bravest Girl in the World by Laurence Anholt at various times throughout the event, including 12p.m., 1p.m., and 1:30 p.m. Visitors can also enter a raffle to win a copy of the book. These storytelling sessions will give a sneak peek into the upcoming performance tour of the opera based on the book, which is part of Lyric’s Opera in the Neighborhoods program. For more information on the Opera in the Neighborhoods program and for tickets to public performances, beginning October 12, please visit lyricopera.org/frida.
