      Each fall as temperatures begin to drop in North America, iconic orange-and-black monarch butterflies fill the skies. They travel up to 100 miles per day as they make their way south, primarily to the oyamel fir forests of Michoacán, Mexico.
     Eastern monarchs travel 3,000 miles, connecting Canadian, U.S. and Mexican communities, inspiring us with their endurance and courage.
     Bring your family and friends on Saturday, September 17 to the 5th annual Festival de la Monarca and help us welcome the monarch butterflies as they journey to Michoacán. It’s FREE and open to all!
     This festival—which also coincides with National Hispanic Heritage Month in the United States—invites you to celebrate the beautiful monarch butterfly with your East Chicago community members with fun activities, music, art, dance, and food.
