Mark Day of the Dead with the Latino Staff Association Oct. 30
October 27, 2015 •
Join the Latino Staff Association (LaSA) to mark El Día de los Muertos this Friday, Oct. 30. LaSA will create a display/altar in the Franklin lobby where you can leave personal notes about a loved one. (The notes will remain private and will be discarded afterwards.)
The Day of the Dead is widely celebrated on Nov. 1 (all Saints Day) and November 2 (All Souls Day) in Mexico and some parts of Central and South America. It is a time of joyous celebration reminding all of us to enjoy life and to honor the lives of loved ones who have died.
During the lunch hour, from noon to 1 p.m., make a sugar skull, with the UCOP Crafts Group. They’re asking for a $5 donation to cover the cost of materials.
