Day of the Dead Mural

Tuesday, Oct. 1 | 12 p.m. until complete | Library and Learning Commons

Help create a mural and altars in commemoration of the Day of the Dead, which combines the ancient Aztec custom of celebrating ancestors with All Souls Day. El Día de los Muertos (Day of the Dead) is a day of celebration, particularly for the people in Mexico and Central America, and for many Mexican Americans in the United States. It is a day to honor and commemorate the lives of the dearly departed and to welcome the return of their spirits.
