About

Day of the Dead: Art, Culture, Spirit


This traditional holiday, The Day of the Dead, is a profoundly serious occasion frequently celebrated with great joy experienced through reconnecting with lost loved ones. It is an expression of the belief that death is not the end of life, but the continuation of life in whatever world comes next.

The exhibition will feature handmade folk art, interactive displays and bilingual labels.
