Dia De Los Muertos
Dia de los Muertos (Day of the Dead) is a Mexican holiday in which family and friends gather to remember and pray for friends and family members that have died. Usually an altar is made honoring the friend or family member that has passed. The altars are set up with many things such as sugar skulls, flowers, and food that the deceased loved. Continuing with this Mexican tradition, Chicano Caucus will be having a Dia de los Muertos celebration on October 28th on the steps of Low Plaza right by Alma Mater. We will be having an open mic where anyone can come up and share anything. Along side the open mic there will be free pan dulce(Mexican sweet bread) and arroz con leche. An altar will also be made by the Chicano Caucus which will be set up with candles and sugar skulls. Hope everyone can come out and have a fun night with us.
