Sugar Skull Workshop

Dia de Muertos Friday, 11/3/2023

Sugar Skull Workshop

Honoring those who have passed in Mexican culture is no dour occasion, as the holiday otherwise known as the Day of the Dead has long proved. Besides the ornate family altars (ofrendas) and the colorful skulls (calaveras), revelers beckon the spirits of their deceased loved one with boisterous mariachi bands, poem/epitaph (calaveras literarias) readings, and enough tamales and pan de muerto for both the dead and the living. Día de los Muertos events will fleck the valley, including a pre-Día Sugar Skull Workshop.
