ABOUT ABOUT

Guests of all ages will enjoy a variety of interactive activities throughout the evening. Children can create their own chicharra kazoos to mimic the sound of cicadas, participate in hands-on art at the easel station, and learn about the science of cicada communication at an interactive sound display. The walking trail at Quinta Mazatlán will feature oversized, 6-foot-tall storybook pages from the children’s book Cicada Symphony by Lisa Kobman. This illustrated story follows the life of 17-year cicadas through rhyming verses and fun facts, making science approachable and fun for young readers.

As guests walk the trail, they will also enjoy live music performed by talented string musicians from the RGV Jazz Collective, providing a beautiful background to the natural setting. Local food and beverage vendors will be on-site with a variety of refreshments to enjoy throughout the evening.
