Join us for a Sugar Skull decorating workshop! We’re partnering with Creative Mornings for a special Field Trip where we'll be decorating sugar skulls in honor of Día de Los Muertos.

In this workshop you will learn about calaveras and decorate your own calavera (sugar skull) to take home.

Día de los Muertos is celebrated on November 1st and 2nd in central and southern Mexico to welcome the spirits of those who have passed on. Each home creates elaborate altars decorated with candles, marigolds, fruit, peanuts, mole, pan de muerto, food, water, soda, hot chocolate and sugar skulls.
