Upcoming EventsWEBINAR: íBienvenidos a Casa! Creating Your Dia de los Muertos OfrendJoin NAHN at 8PM Eastern on October 30th for this culturally-oriented, instructional presentation on Dia de los Muertos (Day of the Dead). Día de los Muertos (Day of the Dead, Oct. 27-Nov. 2) is a millennia-old indigenous tradition from the Americas that has been gaining popularity in the U.S. It is often associated with face-painted skulls and a party-like atmosphere celebrating the departed souls of loved ones. However, few know about its much deeper significance rooted in a sophisticated indigenous cosmology and holistic perspective of life and death, which for many can be profoundly healing. You are invited to more fully understand Día de los Muertos beyond the face paint and connect with its “magic” by learning to create your own ofrenda (offering) that will welcome your beloved home.
