Explore the cultural traditions and meanings of Día de los Muertos through a hands-on workshop creating cajitas—small altars that honor and remember loved ones, ancestors, and cultural traditions. Participants will learn about the history and symbolism of Día de los Muertos, including the significance of ofrendas, photographs, marigolds, pan de muerto, and personal objects. Through creative expression and storytelling, participants will design their own cajita while reflecting on memory, identity, family, and cultural connection. No artistic experience is necessary; participants will receive materials and guidance throughout the activity.
