Día de Muertos (2024)
Celebrate Día de Muertos by making Cempasúchils, or Mexican Marigolds, in an art workshop. Leave it on our community altar or take it home. Recommended for ages 6+.
The community altar, or ofrenda, will be on view from Friday, November 1, through Sunday, November 3 during regular museum hours. In addition to the Cempasúchils, you are invited to place pictures of your departed loved ones. We recommend bringing copies of the pictures instead of originals. If you are unable to do so in person, you may email a photo to Pedro Betanzos at pbetanzos@hrm.org.
