Dia De Los Muertos is deeply rooted in the Mexican culture. True to Broadway Square's mission to educate and foster an authentic cultural appreciation of this celebration by the public, we think it's important to spend a little time learning some of the relevant language often spoken when discussing or planning for Dia De Los Muertos.

Broadway Square created a matching game where players are encouraged to match the English word for different elements of Dia De Los Muertos celebrations with the Spanish word referring to the same thing.

Tell us who you would set an alter up for and show us what you would include on this alter. Remember, alters include colorful, traditionally festive elements, as well as sweet offerings for your loved one to enjoy - typically these include candies and baked goods your relative was particularly fond of. 

Crayons, markers, colored pencils and coloring sheets with empty alters to be decorated and personalized will be available. 

Broadway Square is collecting and testing traditional Dia De Los Muertos recipes, and will have recipe cards and fresh samples of a selection of these foods available to event attendees. 

The display and offering of colorfully decorated sugar skulls is another traditional element of Dia De Los Muertos, and Broadway Square will be hosting a presentation on authentic sugar skull creation and decoration.
