Día de los Muertos Celebration in Lawrence
The Lawrence community is invited to participate in a Día de los Muertos altar competition and celebration to honor lost loved ones — human and animal companions alike.
Rooted in Mexican culture, Día de los Muertos, or Day of the Dead, is a holiday in which people commune with their deceased loved ones and honor their memories with celebrations.
Families and communities set up ofrendas, or altars, with personal items to welcome those who have passed on.
Historically, the experiences of loss speak through tangible expressions of rituals honoring the dead.
This year, Somos Lawrence families and Lawrence Percolator are hosting the annual local event on Saturday, Nov.
In Mexico, these simultaneously happy and sad celebrations honoring our loved ones begin on Oct. 26, and end on All Souls’ Day on November 2nd.
