Día de Muertos is a festive time when families remember their dead and honor the continuity of life. The celebration has roots in both ancient pre-Hispanic celebrations and medieval Spanish Catholic practices and has evolved to feature a blend of elements from both traditions. The Lam Museum’s annual exhibit celebrates this unique observance with interpretation that examines the diverse ways that people celebrate Día de Muertos in both Mexico and the United States through artifacts and images. The exhibit’s centerpiece is a traditional ofrenda, an altar with food and beverage offerings, flowers, sugar skulls, and photos of deceased loved ones. The colorful exhibit also includes information on the celebration’s history and its unique skeleton-themed folk art. The exhibit presents text in English and Spanish.
