Join us as we celebrate the opening of our annual Día de los Muertos exhibition. Curator of History, Eric Stanley, will moderate a virtual panel discussion with the artists and collectors who contributed to this year's exhibition.
Día de los Muertos (Day of the Dead) is a joyous remembrance of the lives of family members and loved ones who have passed and a celebration of the cycle of life. The holiday is celebrated on November 1st and 2nd throughout Latin America, but is more closely associated with Mexico, where it originated. This year, the Museum's annual Día de los Muertos exhibition is presented in the Museum's Sculpture Garden for the first time. The outdoor exhibition echoes the setting of many Day of the Dead observances in Mexico which often take place in cemeteries. The exhibition provides a place to remember the people we have lost, whether in 2020 or in years past.
Link to attend program will be included in registration confirmation email (not transaction receipt email) which may take up to 15 minutes to receive. Registration is limited.
