Dive into the heart of one of Mexico's most vibrant and profound traditions. This interactive workshop will offer you a unique cultural immersion right here on campus.

You will uncover the true meaning behind this beautiful celebration, and  learn Spanish vocabulary while exploring the deeply symbolic elements of a traditional ofrenda (altar). Discover why marigolds, candles, and pan de muerto are placed as offerings, and learn how Mexican culture embraces death not with sorrow, but with color, food, and joyous remembrance.
