SUMMARY:Community Art Workshop: Día de los Muertos
DESCRIPTION:oin us for a community art workshop with artist Theresa Escobedo. Participants will have an opportunity to learn how to make sugar skulls\, paper flowers and create papel picado in honor of Día de los Muertos. \nThe sugar skulls\, flowers\, and papel picado created in this workshop will also be included in the community ofrenda (altar) displayed in the museum through November. \nTheresa Escobedo (b. 1985) \nTheresa Escobedo is a multi-disciplinary artist\, curator\, and arts administrator active in Houston. Her creative work intersects ancestry\, history\, and spiritualism\, and combines elements of the artist’s mixed cultural heritage to demonstrate and ultimately represent broad ancestral influences and cosmopolitan spiritual perspectives. Her practice has evolved to include the design and installation of ofrendas\, each of which demonstrates a decisive act of remembrance and works to safeguard familial mythologies\, complex cultural histories\, and spiritual pursuits. These days\, her approach to altar-making merges indigenous practices with contemporary influences and affirms the universality of the practice of altar-making as an art form. \nHer most recent work\, presented at Holocaust Museum Houston\, has its roots in the family history described in the book Stolen Heritage. Authored by the artist’s third cousin\, Abel Rubio\, the published tome offers anecdotal accounts of a family’s struggle for survival in the Texas/Mexican frontier\, participation on both sides of the conflict during the Texas/Mexican revolution\, and the post-revolutionary trauma of stolen life and land. \nThe event will be hosted in person and is for all ages. Admission is free and open to the public. \nPlease note: Face masks are required for all guests ages 2 and up. Complimentary masks are available at the Security desk. \n			\n				Register
