:Upcoming Events
Las Posadas
Las Posadas has been a part of Olvera Street since its founding in 1930. Reenacting the journey of Mary and Joseph to Bethlehem with traditional songs, colorful costumes, and vibrant music brings one of the oldest Christmas stories to life. While the event is rooted in Christian and Catholic traditions, all are welcome to participate. Each night the crowd gathers as the pastores, or shepherds, are led by the angel to ask for shelter at one of the shops…
A Christmas Carol with Charles Dickens
Our holiday tradition is returning to the Independent Shakespeare Company for its 19th year. Join us as we recreate (with a little artistic license) the experience of a public reading of A Christmas Carol, given by Charles Dickens himself. Enjoy a warm cup of hot chocolate or spiced (and spiked.) cider as the ISC Studio transforms into a cozy Victorian drawing room.

We Live in Painting: The Nature of Color in Mesoamerican Art
Mesoamerican artists held a cosmic responsibility: as they adorned the surfaces of buildings, clay vessels, textiles, bark-paper pages, and sculptures with color, they (quite literally) made the world. Color mapped the very order of the cosmos, of time and space. The exhibition explores the science, art, and cosmology of color in Mesoamerica. See website for ticket prices and registration.
