Come together for an evening of art play! We will adorn an ofrenda candle with pictures of our loved ones that have departed to add to your altar.

Nov. 1 marks the beginning of Día de los Muertos, or Day of the Dead, in Mexico.

The holiday is a day of remembrance for those who have died. Its origins can be traced to pre-colonial Mexico, when it was believed that the souls of dead loved ones returned to their families once a year so that their lives could be celebrated. Today, families commemorate the day by creating ofrendas, the Spanish word for offerings that is also used to mean altar for Día de los Muertos.

Fee $15

Fee includes all supplies to embellish a glass jar altar candle. Remember to bring paper copied photos of your loved ones and any special items to personalize your candle.

You’re welcome to bring a vinyl that reminds you of your loved ones to play.
