Ofrenda, or offering, is a central element in Día de Muertos. This year's community ofrenda exhibit focuses on the Legend of the Cempasúchil flower (marigold) and its important role in Día de Muertos festivities with handmade elements from Mexican artisans like monumental fabric flowers, silver hummingbirds and ceramic skulls. Visitors are invited to place memories and wishes for loved ones on the ofrenda.
LA PROCESIÓN
