Community Altar Contest: Witness breathtaking ofrendas (altars) created by local artists and community members, each telling a unique story of remembrance. Want to participate? Submit your own altar! (Sign-up details here.)

Catrina & Catrín Competition: Dress in your most stunning calavera-inspired attire and compete for prizes in our Catrina/Catrín Contest! Whether elegant, elaborate, or eerily creative — show off your style.

Artisan Market & Hands-On Activities: Browse handmade crafts, jewelry, and traditional wares from local vendors, or roll up your sleeves for interactive art workshops the whole family can enjoy.

Food & Refreshments: Savor delicious bites and drinks inspired by the flavors of the season — perfect for fueling your evening of exploration.
