Marking the eighth year celebrating Dia de Los Muertos at the Myrtle Beach Art Museum, this Mexican tradition gives visitors a way to connect with the culture of our neighbors. Used as a way to memorialize those family members and friends who have passed on, Dia de los Muertos includes a variety of arts, food, and other crafts. At this festivity, visitors can watch and participate in crafts workshops to make masks, papel picado, and the famous sugar skulls. Artist’s altars, a main way that the Mexican culture celebrates the lives of those who are gone, will also be displayed. Traditional Mexican dancing, a live Mariachi band, and even a piñata will be present at this event.
