One of the staples of Kansas City’s Westside community, the Irene H. Ruiz Branch of the Kansas City Public Library commemorates its 10th anniversary with a musical showcase.
Among the acts to perform will be the Alta Vista Middle School Mariachi Band and the Solis Family Band. Refreshments will be provided while a tour of the branch is conducted. The branch, named for former librarian Irene Ruiz, features a wide variety of materials in Spanish as well as unique bibliographic and audiovisual resources related to Latin American culture.
