Copitas de Sol: : A Spirited Mixer
The Auxiliary Board of the National Museum of Mexican Art invites you to Copitas de Sol: A Spirited Mixer produced in partnership with S.A.C.R.E.D. Join us and explore the world of superb agave spirits like mezcal, tequila, and raicilla. Plus, enjoy delicious bites by some of Chicago's best restaurants paired with each agave spirit brand. Each team serves small bites, petite cocktails, and neat pours. We’ll also have plenty of craft brews on deck just for you.
Copitas de Sol features two sessions offering two different ambiances. Pick the one that best suits you and your friends!
Agave Tales: 1:00 pm – 3:00 pm
Enjoy Copitas de Sol in a setting that allows for laid-back one-on-one conversations with brand ambassadors, restauranteurs, and bartenders. This is a great chance to discover your favorite agave expressions or the inspiration behind the delicious cocktails and small bites. Finish up with a guided tour of the exhibition Nuestras Historias: Stories of Mexican Identity from the Permanent Collection.
Agave Vibes: 4:00 pm – 6:00 pm
This upbeat session is for those who want to enjoy the event in a livelier atmosphere. All the great brand ambassadors and restaurants will be ready to receive you, with the addition of a live DJ and dancing. Social butterflies will flutter in this session while enjoying small bites, drinks, and a variety of agave spirits. Finally, try your luck in our raffle featuring enticing prize packages.
Come, delight your taste buds, and fill up your copita with solecito this summer! Check out our initial lineup below, but don’t delay; a limited number of tickets are available.
