Join us for our Community Celebration to Welcome Yuyi!

Discover the Life and Legacy of Yuyi Morales!

Yuyi will present a FREE public gallery talk at 6:30pm, be available to personalize and sign your books, and be a part of the celebration!

Free public gallery talk by best-selling children’s picture book artist and author Yuyi Morales, whose original artwork is on display at the NCCIL through May 28.

Morales was born in Xalapa, Mexico in 1968. The influence of her Mexican birthright and culture is evident in all of her titles and helps to identify the power of heritage in the work of children’s picture books. Her family was made of avid storytellers, which laid a foundation of creative communication from the beginning of Yuyi’s life.
