Join Holocaust Museum Houston in partnership with Más Que Tres in our second annual Día De Los Muertos Community Workshop. Participants at this family-friendly event will have an opportunity to learn about creating an altar with Indigenous and Christian elements, creating a shadow box dedicated to a deceased loved one, and making paper flowers out of tissue paper or corn husk to go on the altar. Participants can bring a small photo up to 2×3 to fit inside a 5×4 shadow box. Participants can also decorate a skull mask to take home.
Más Que Tres is a group of local Chicanas who use diverse urban experiences to cultivate and bridge communities through innovative approaches. The collective comprises educators and creatives: Samantha Rodriguez, Deniz Lopez, Tina Hernandez, and Jessica Izaguirre. They have created altars together for the past six years, hosted self-care workshops for the We Are Girls conference, a vision board workshop, and co-hosted other cultural events.
This event is open to the public, but registration is required due to limited seating.
