Day of the Dead Comes to AAUW Petaluma
September 22, 2 to 4 p.m.
Day of the Dead Comes to AAUW Petaluma
September 22, 2 to 4 p.m.
a de los Muertos, or Day of the Dead, is mostly celebrated in Mexico but the tradition can be embraced by all of us. Honoring the dead is traditional in many countries around the world too. It’s an opportunity to remember loved ones, with joy and even humor, who have passed away. You have surely seen the sugar skulls and dancing skeletons that are now commonly marketed in October.
Artist Irma Vega Bijou has invited us to her home studio to learn how to make an altar for Dia de los Muertos.
We will be working as a group to create an AAUW altar that will be displayed at Petaluma Art Center’s “Honoring Life: Love and Remembrance” exhibit during the month of October.
Think about whom you want to remember, and bring items to be included in our altar preparation. Photographs are common, as are items that represent the person you are honoring or that are something the person loved. No valuable or perishable objects, please! Artificial or hand-made items are completely appropriate. You’ll also get ideas on how to create your own personal home altar.
RSVP to Jean Reed so we know how many will attend.
