Description

Día de los Muertos is a Latin American custom celebrating the lives of the deceased with food, drink, parties, and activities the dead enjoyed in life. It recognizes death as a natural part of the human experience, beginning with birth, childhood, and growing up to become a contributing member of the community. On Día de los Muertos, the dead are also a part of the community, awakened from their eternal sleep to share celebrations with their loved ones.

McKinney Día de los Muertos is held annually at the Dr. Glenn Mitchell Memorial Park, to celebrate in our community this honored tradition.  This entire event is created and managed by volunteers, which is why we need your help!  Won't you join us?
