The office of Diversity, Equity & Inclusion invites the community to participate in its inaugural Día de los Muertos celebration. The event will honor loved ones and celebrate life through cultural traditions. It will be held at each of the CSN Multicultural Centers on October 30, from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m., with an exhibition of community altars continuing on October 30-31 from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m.
This celebration will feature traditional Pan de Muertos (traditional bread), face painting, arts and crafts, and an exhibition of community altars where participants can create personalized altars to honor deceased loved ones. Space for altar creation is limited; those interested in building an altar are encouraged to visit the Multicultural Center to sign up in advance.
Día de los Muertos, or Day of the Dead, is a Mexican holiday that honors those who have passed by celebrating their memory with vibrant altars and offerings. CSN’s celebration offers students, staff, and the community an opportunity to connect with these traditions, share memories, and reflect on the lives of those who have passed in a meaningful way.
