What do monarch butterflies and Día de los Muertos have in common? Both symbolize a beautiful connection between life, memory, and tradition. The Southeast Branch Library brings these worlds together with Raíces y Alas, a family-friendly celebration featuring live music from Los Fandangueros de Austin, activities, and food. Part of Austin’s citywide Roots & Wings Festival, this free event invites visitors of all ages to celebrate Mexican traditions, nature, and the memories that keep loved ones close.
