Día de los Muertos @ Rinconcito

Tuesday, November 1, 2022

| Free

Join us in honoring our antepasados and conserving the traditions of our Mexican heritage and the Westside at our annual Día de Muertos celebration at the Rinconcito de Esperanza (816 S. Colorado, San Antonio, TX 78207).  Admission is free!

There will be displays of community altars/ofrendas, live music, face painting for children, food, and more! The evening will highlight readings of literary ofrendas to remember our dead, and calavera poems that poke fun at the living and their untimely encounters with La Muerte or La Catrina. We will also have a procession through the neighborhood, so please join us! Folks are welcome to dress up and bring an instrument or noise maker for the procession.

And you can visit MujerArtes Cooperative de Esperanza in their studio at the Rinconcito, where they will be selling Day of the Dead clay artwork and more!

Concessions will be available with chalupas, aguas frescas, chocolate mexicano, & pan dulce y pan de muerto. Vegan options will be available.
Bring your chairs & set-up to watch the performances! Dancing is encouraged!
