Do you know what the Day of the Dead is, when it takes place, and where it is celebrated?

Day of the Dead (Día de los Muertos) is a lively celebration honoring life, blending ancient Aztec and Spanish Catholic traditions. This is the day when families honor their deceased loved ones.  Join us for a delightful experience as we immerse ourselves in the stories and images from Oaxaca, explore ofrendas, and taste some pan de muerto (bread of the dead) with hot chocolate. Please register.
