Día de los Muertos (Day of the Dead) Celebration

Día de los Muertos (Day of the Dead) Celebration

Presented by Southern Utah Museum of Art at Southern Utah Museum of Art

Southern Utah's largest Día de los Muertos (Day of the Dead) celebration returns with music, dance, food, art, and more to honor our ancestors. Día de los Muertos is formally celebrated from November 1st to November 2nd in honor of loved ones who have passed away. Though there are many variations of Day of the Dead traditions, it is common to clean and decorate graves; build ofrendas (altars dedicated to loved ones); and honor the dead with calaveras (sugar skulls), cempazúchitl (aztec marigolds), and traditional foods and beverages.

Remember your loved ones through the Community Ofrenda on display from October 23 - November 4. Email images to sumamarketing@suu.edu by Monday, October 16.
