The Dominguez Rancho Adobe Museum in collaboration with Semillitas Learning Community will celebrate its 7th Annual Día de Muertos event. Rooted in Mexican tradition, Día de Muertos is a festive time of remembrance in which families decorate the tombs of deceased relatives and install memorial ofrendas/altars where special offerings are laid out to appeal and comfort to the returning souls. The public is invited to view ofrendas honoring the dead, live performances, Mexican cuisine, and shop from local artisans.
