Still Time To See Dia De Los Muertos Exhibit

Artwork to remain on display until early November.

From City Staff

The Dia De Los Muertos exhibit is still open and there's plenty of time to see the display.

The Day of the Dead is a Mexican and Mexican American celebration that happens annually on November 1 and 2. People celebrate loved ones who have passed away by decorating their graves with crafts, pictures and food. Many also create their own altars in their homes to honor loved ones and place offerings such as pan dulce and sugar skulls.

The ARC will host its annual Day of the Dead art exhibition, along with a special opening reception and craft projects for all ages.

The exhibit lasts until Nov. 2.

Gallery hours are Monday through Thursday, 4 p.m. to 8 p.m. and Saturday from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. The gallery is closed Fridays and Sundays.

All art exhibits are free and open to the public.

The arts and Recreation Center is located at 14403-B East Pacific Avenue.

For more information, call (626) 214-1601.
