This year at the Everyman, we will be creating an Altar, or Ofrenda, for Día de Muertos (Day of the Dead), which will be on display from October 26th to November 6th.
This is a traditional Mexican celebration held at this time of year to honour and remember loved ones who have passed away. The main purpose of the ofrenda is to remember and celebrate the lives of family members, friends and even beloved pets who are no longer with us.
There will be a small presentation on the afternoon of October 30th at 5:00 pm, where further explanation about this tradition will be provided.
