Art & Spirit: Dia de los Muertos

In celebration of Día de los Muertos, join us on the Museum Courtyard for an evening of art, music, and remembrance. Participants will create a personal ofrenda with a nicho box, inspired by the Museum’s Día de los Muertos altar designed by Macedonio Arteaga and dedicated to Frida Kahlo.

Constructed of humble materials, nichos can be as colorful and varied as you make them! Bring your own photo of a loved one or small object of remembrance to incorporate into your nicho.

Tickets include admission to the exhibitions, supplies for a drop-in art activity, and a signature cocktail. This is a 21+ event. ID required.
