Submitted by kkanwischer on Fri, 09/30/2022 - 15:53

This presentation explores the significance and elements of ofrendas (Spanish for "offering") and walks you through how to build one honoring your loved ones on Dia De Los Muertos.

A sample ofrenda will be set up to showcase different items traditionally included and we will be constructing a community ofrenda to be on display through the evening. Attendees are invited to bring photos, decorations, or favorite dishes of loved ones to add to the table. Items can be collected and brought home at the end of the event.
