Mexican Pocket Shrine Workshop

As a part of our exhibit Nosotros: A Celebration of Latin & Hispanic Culture, create a beloved Mexican pocket shrine or altar unique to you. These decorative tins are made to hold reverence for a particular deity or your own loved ones and are designed to be easily carried, allowing individuals to have a personal space for contemplation while on the go.Small metal tins will be provided, but participants may bring one they would prefer to use. In addition, paint, papers, assembly materials, and a few decorative items will be provided, but you are encouraged to bring a few trinkets that “speak” to you to add a personal touch.

Accompanying the step-by-step assembly instruction will be an explanation of the significance of the shrine in Mexican culture. You’ll have your own shrine by the end of the workshop – something to keep close as a reminder for whatever you hold reverence for.
