Join us for Día de los Muertos Market & Craft Day, in collaboration with the Mujeres Makers Market!
Día de los Muertos is a celebration, rooted in Indigenous and Latinx traditions and cultures, that honors and celebrates those who have passed away before us. To add to the fun of this free, magical celebration, there will be over 70 vendors, face painters, art workshops, a DJ, dance performances, a Catrina Contest, Lotería, a photo booth, free arts & crafts, and a community ofrenda (altar), where all are invited to view and/or pay their respects to their deceased ancestors by leaving a photo or memento.
The Mujeres Makers Market takes place from 10am – 4pm, and SBTHP will be providing free arts and crafts and family-friendly activities from 12pm – 4pm in the Presidio Orchard.
COMMUNITY VIRTUAL ALTAR
We invite you to commemorate a loved one or pet who has passed by submitting a photo for our community virtual altar. Along with the photo, you're welcome to share a memory or anecdote about them.
Please submit a photo of your loved ones by October 25.
