Tribal Burn: Underworld on Fire

Remove yourself from your mere mortal, day to day existence, and journey through the Spirit World in the tradition of Dia de los Muertos, Day of the Dead. Experience performances, dances, fire ceremonies and more that honor the spirit of the beauty and creativity of human existence.

One of our favorite holidays to celebrate at Hip Expressions, Dia de los Muertos originates in Mexico. This rare holiday honors both life and death - exchanging mourning for celebration. We honor our past loved ones by sharing a meal with them, offering them marigolds, sugar skulls, and favorite food and drinks.

Calaveras (skulls) are ubiquitous during Day of the Dead. The skulls are often drawn with a smile - as if to laugh at death itself. They take many forms such as sugar candies, clay decorations, and most memorable: face painting!

As this is to honor our past loved ones, we'll be setting up an altar so they can share in the celebration. Please bring pictures of your past loved ones, favorite objects, or other representations to add to the altar so we can honor the cycle of life.
The show will be spectacular! Epic performances by local and visiting dancers will honor the joy and reverence of this Holiday.

Come dressed in your best Day of the Dead inspired outfit; if you are so inclined, join our costume contest!
