Happy Hour - Day of the Dead and Future Events

Hopefully you were able to make it to one of the special events for Dia de los Muertos. But don’t worry if you didn’t!

During our weekly happy hour we will be sharing some videos from our friends in Mexico who have been putting together the special presentation. They have included our photos in their ofrendas and also made time to share with us on zoom live Sunday November 1st (RSVP here) during the offering.

This will be another extra special happy hour - can’t wait to share with you!

Dia de los Muertos [Part 2] Virtual Ofrenda

Virtual Ofrenda

This event is the culmination of the Dia de los Muertos festivities that our friends in Mexico have invited us to participate in with them. They have created a very special ofreda not only for us but including the photos we have sent them so we and our families are participants in their offering.

This zoom call will be extra special because we will not only get to see what this special holiday is like in Mexico but we will finally get to have a call with both American and Mexican participants. Don’t worry if you don’t speak Spanish, we will make sure to translate so everyone understands as clearly as possible.

Dia de los Muertos [Part 1] What is Dia de los Muertos?

What is Dia de los Muertos?

In preparation for Day of the Dead celebration in Mexico City, we are inviting you to dive into the history of the most important holiday in Mexico. During our Tuesday happy hour chat we will be sharing what we know, and what questions we might have about this iconic holiday.

This means you have homework!

Watch the Pixar movie Coco to get an introduction to what Dia de los Muertos is all about. They did a wonderful job telling a beautiful story while being culturally accurate to many of the traditions.

Start thinking about what surprised you about the traditions. What did you learn? Do you know what an ofrenda is now?

RSVP here for these special events here.
