An ofrenda, also known as an altar, is a central part of the Day of the Dead celebration. It is a tribute to deceased loved ones that is meant to welcome their spirits back to the living world. In this workshop, learn more about this treasured holiday, honor your lost loved ones and create a mini ofrenda that you can easily store and save for years- made out of sustainable materials!
Supplies will be provided in order to create a customized ofrenda that is meaningful to you, but we also encourage participants to bring objects from home! These objects can include (but are not limited to) pictures of loved ones, candy, your loved ones' favorite foods/drinks and decorations. Keep in mind the miniature size of these altars when deciding what to bring!
This workshop is appropriate for ages 10+ only.
