Hooch and Hive will be home to the Art of the Taco event, curated by Darren Scott, which will showcase art installations, a giant LED ball pit and local DJs. 

This extended Cinco de Mayo celebration will run from 1p.m.-midnight serving up specialty cocktails, taco-themed art, live painting, and a hot pepper eating contest. 

Get there early for a parking spot and make Cinco de Mayo an all-day celebration.

Tickets include three tacos and one free drink. Snag a ticket prior to the event for $20, and $25 at the door. Bring extra dough for bites from the Hooch and Hive kitchen and booze to wash it all down before diving into the ball pit.
