Día de Muertos, Memories & Offerings Exhibit

Join Friends in a visit to the National Museum of Mexican Art to view their exhibit Día de Muertos, Memories & Offerings.

From their website:

Our 36th Day of the Dead exhibition remembers the numerous individuals from Mexico and the U.S. who have died from COVID and other tragedies in the last year. The annual act of grieving has long been an essential aspect of the yearly celebration of life, as it offers a restorative way to acknowledge and accept the inevitable. Please join us to experience this age-old tradition of honoring the lives of lost loved ones. Folk art, fine art and photography make up the exhibition, bringing to life one of Mexico’s most cherished celebrations. Artists from both sides of the U.S./Mexico border express a sense of continuity and culture during this season of remembering.

Curated by Dolores Mercado & Cesáreo Moreno.

The exhibit runs through December 11 if you would like to attend at another time.

The National Museum of Mexican Art is located at 1852 W 19th Street. Admission is free. Masks are required. Learn more about getting there on their website: https://nationalmuseumofmexicanart.org/visit
