Día de los Muertos, or Day of the Dead, is a vibrant community celebration honoring both los muertos and the beauty of life. Day of the Dead celebrations began in Central America, and have roots in indigenous and Catholic traditions. Sweet sugar skulls, bright colors, and bitter-smelling cempazuchitl (calendula, or marigold) flowers evoke vibrant, ephemeral life and bitter, inevitable death–embracing both.
Each year Tieton Arts & Humanities creates one huge community altar and we invite everyone to add to it. Visitors can bring photos of loved ones, write messages, and bring mementos, candies, or breads. This provides a special opportunity to remember the special people in our lives that are no longer with us.
This year’s celebration will be Sunday, October 27, 2024, from 12 to 5 pm.
The Día De Los Muertos Exhibition runs from October 27 to November 16, 2024 at the Mighty Tieton Warehouse.
Gallery Hours: Fridays and Saturdays 12pm - 5pm or by Appointment.
