Dia de Los Muertos at RSI
Recently in class, students celebrated Dia de los Muertos (Day of the Dead), which is an important holiday in the Mexican tradition. This event is marked by the creation of ofrendas, which would be an alter in honor of the deceased. They are typically decorated with photos, items, and the favorite foods of the deceased to honor them. Students also enjoyed in-class activities, such as eating sweet bread and sipping on Mexican hot chocolate, and themed crafts!
