October 31 @ 10:00 am – 4:00 pm
Join us in the Garden for a joyous Día de los Muertos (Day of the Dead) Celebration, October 31 & November 1, 10am – 4pm. With origins in Mexico, this colorful holiday is a time to share memories of loved ones and celebrate our families and friends. Discover the holiday’s significance and its rich culture through special displays, music performances, dancers, and arts and crafts stations. Enjoy lunch at Fogg Café, where they will feature blue corn empanadas throughout the weekend-long celebration.
