Day of the Dead - Masked Ball October 31, 2009

Revelers are invited to come to the 'Ofrenda' reception and parade dressed Day of the Dead style or decked out in Halloween finery. An artist-led sugar skull activity and Mariachi performance by Mariachi Estrellas will kick off the celebration. Live music including rock, swing, and blues will be interspersed with belly dancing and silk trapeze performances throughout the event. Guests can participate in the exhibition by bringing personal remembrances - ofrendas - to contribute to the artist-made public altar honoring those who have left us.
