The Auxiliary Board of the National Museum of Mexican Art is thrilled to invite 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, a live DJ, dancing, and more. We’ll be pairing agave spirit brands with some of Chicago's best restaurants. Each team serves small bites, cocktails, and neat pours. We’ll also have plenty of craft brews on deck just for you. Last, but not least, 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.

All proceeds for this fundraiser support the National Museum of Mexican Art.

You must be 21 years or older to attend.
