Join Chicanx Latinx Campus Association & the Makers Lab for a Sugar Skull Decorating Workshop

Día de los muertos (Day of the Dead) is a festive holiday celebrated in November throughout Mexico that celebrates the life of loved ones who have passed. Sugar skulls are used to adorn elaborate altars that invite our loved ones to return and help to light their way home. This event is in preparation for the Day of the Dead October 30th celebration to be held at the UCSF Library.

Join us in the Makers Lab to learn about the holiday and decorate sugar skulls with us! Please note we have scheduled two sugar skull decorating sessions to accommodate as many people as possible. The sessions will be held at 11:30am and then again at 12:45pm, please register accordingly.
