Pet owners, animal lovers, and furry, feathered, or other friends are invited to the sixth annual Blessing of Animals. The event will feature individual pet blessings, activities for children, and animal organization exhibits. Photos of blessings will be available for purchase.
Start off the Cinco de Mayo season of celebrating with a Fido friendly event.
Mission San Luis invites all Chihuahuas, Chihuahua wannabes, their companions, and their fans to join the fun for the second annual “paseo” around the plaza. The event is a good opportunity to showcase your dogs and to introduce them to their cultural heritage at the same time.
Costumes are optional. All dogs must be on leashes. Unlike the Westminster Kennel Club Dog Show, this event doesn’t require a pedigree. If it looks like a Chihuahua, walks like a Chihuahua, or thinks it is a Chihuahua, it is welcome at Mission San Luis. Bring a picnic lunch and enjoy the day and the opportunity to meet others who share your enthusiasm for this small but mighty breed. Free with admission to site.

Giving Thanks: Exploring 17th Century Food Traditions at Mission San Luis
Mission San Luis invites the public to Giving Thanks, a celebration of 17th–century Spanish and Apalachee Indian traditional foods. Visitors can observe costumed interpreters smoking meat and fish on the barbacoa, and demonstrating the use of native and European plants from their gardens and fields. The Mission’s unique culinary history comes to life with preparations for the feast. There will be hands-on food tasks for children.
