Filipino Friday Nights

Filipino Friday Nights 
While working to develop “Mosaic of Cultures: Aurora’s Filipino Community,” we discovered so many great stories from our local partners that we couldn’t fit everything into our gallery. Filipino Friday Nights will explore Filipino culture and history. These events are included with museum admission, but free for members.
