 Día de los Muertos (Day of the Dead) is a celebration welcoming back   lost loved ones, who visit with friends and family during the holiday.  Celebrants believe that at midnight on Oct. 31, the souls of deceased children come to visit with their families and stay through November 1.  The souls of deceased adults visit on November 2.  Ofrendas (altars) are set up to welcome the deceased with their favorite foods, games, photos of the deceased, and other favorites.

In celebration of Día de los Muertos, the Presidio Museum will host ofrendas created by the community. Presidio staff, board members, and volunteers will create public ofrendas to honor veterans, friends & family of the Tucson Presidio Trust, and pets. 

 

A special thanks to the Arizona Historical Society for their sponsorship
