Learn about the moving practices of the Mexican fiesta, the Day of the Dead, from Rene De Los Santos. He shares this powerful tradition of how to honor those who have passed on but are still important in your life. Day of the Dead is November 2, so you will be prepared to celebrate!

Please bring with you as you log on:
- photographs or favorite foods of your beloved family who have passed on, to place on the altar
- Wear bright clothing: it’s a party!

Rene will tell us about the fiesta, show how to set up an Muertos Altar, and invite us to reflect & share, as you feel comfortable. This event is appropriate for folks age 12 and up.

This event will be offered both IN PERSON on Sunday 10/16 and and ONLINE on Sunday 10/23. They require different RSVP’s, so please visit the 10/16 event if you would like to attend in person.

The ONLINE event will take place over ZOOM, with a link sent as you RSVP.
