Don’t put your sombrero down just yet! The party continues through Wednesday. Come out to “Fiesta de Mayo” Art Walk from 5 – 9 p.m., headquartered in Hemming Park. Here’s the scoop from the official website, iloveartwalk.com:

‘Nacho’ average fiesta, don’t miss this art-tastic twist on Cinco de Mayo. Get into the spirit(s) with tequila, piña coladas and cerveza while you shake your maracas to live music by The Chris Thomas Band. The Jalapeño Truck and Latin Soul Grille bring the heat with spicy bites, and Dance Salsa Jax will help you burn the calories with a few hot moves. Plus, what’s a party without a game of giant Jenga or beer pong? Olé!
