This Saturday, September 16th from 3 pm to 8 pm, El Mercadito is joining Music On the Commons at the library park in Talent, OR to honor and celebrate a historical weekend for our people. We will have many fun and exciting activities during the day, but make sure you stay for our surprise live music performance starting at 6 pm.
