Día de los Muertos

We invite you to bring photos of loved ones for the alter, share food, get your face painted, and celebrate Día de los Muertos with our community.

Día de los Muertos is a time when families come together to honor and remember their loved ones who have passed into the spirit world. Rooted in Indigenous traditions of Mexico, it is not a day of sorrow but of love, joy, and remembrance. Through altars adorned with flowers, food, candles, and offerings, we invite the spirits of our ancestors to return and be with us. It is a celebration of the sacred circle of life and death, a way to keep our connections alive across generations, guided by memory, prayer, and gratitude.
