The Natural History Museum has a First Friday event that is lots of fun.
Dez and I went last night to see one of our favorite bands, Kinky.
They played in the Hall of North American Mammals!
Meanwhile, over in the other Mammal Hall (African?), there were drinks and a DJ.
Our tickets (only $18!) allowed us access to the museum. Since we had arrived super early, we explored and found a great exhibit, "Grandes Maestros" a collection of folk art on loan from the collection of Fomento Cultural Banamex.
