Dia de los Muertos
November 1, 200910 a.m. to 6 p.m.
This year, Carolyn's Country Cousins is extending our season to include November 1, and joining our friends and the Hispanic community in the celebration of Dia de los Muertos, or Day of the Dead.
This celebration dates back more than 3,000 years to the indigenous people of Mexico, who viewed death not as the end of life, but as the continuation of life. Instead of fearing death, they embraced it. To them, life was a dream and only in death did they become truly awake.
Dia de los Muertos is truly a day of celebration. The holiday focuses on gatherings of family and friends to pray for and remember friends and family members who have died with much dancing, food, and laughter. Dancers are common in the celebration, as well as alters adorned with small items of memory indicating a celebration of the continuation of a loved family member’s life.
Family celebration is very much who we are and what we do. This will be a great time to learn, share and celebrate family and friends. We are proud to have this opportunity to partner with Reyes Media ( La Gran D 1340 AM Radio, Ke Buena 1480 AM Radio, and Dos Mundos Newspaper).
