About this exhibit:
The 2024 Dia de los Muertos Exhibit will center on expanding our community's understanding of this deeply cultural and historic celebration. Partner schools from southeastern Wisconsin, local artists, and community organizations along with the Mexican Consulate in Milwaukee will showcase authentic Ofrendas which are traditional alters commemorating family members that are not longer physically with us but forever present in our hearts.
