2020 Dia de los Muertos- VIRTUAL

October 29th – November 6, 2020

Join us as we celebrate and learn about the Latin American holiday Dia de los Muertos at Thanksgiving Point! Legend has it that on Dia de los Muertos, the dead join us as a part of our community, awakened from their eternal sleep to share celebrations with loved ones.

While we won’t be celebrating together in person in 2020, we’ll be bringing you a series of videos to learn more about altars (or ofrendas), pan de Muerto (bread of the dead), calacas and calaveras (skeletons and skulls), beautiful dances and more! Don’t miss this mix of family history, beautiful art, lively music, and delicious food.
