	NEWS AND EVENTS Knowledge Hook-Up 1st Annual Car and Bike Show	Day of the Dead Celebrated Throughout November at Knowledge Hook-Up Pictured above last year's Day of the Dead altar set up at KHU by the Mexican people who both attend and teach our classes. This Mexican holiday is a time when families remember their dead, and the continuity of life. Celebrants believe that the souls of the dead return and are all around them. Families remember the departed by telling stories about them. Gravesites and family altars are profusely decorated with flowers (primarily large, bright flowers such as marigolds and chrysanthemums), and adorned with religious amulets and with offerings of food, cigarettes and alcoholic beverages. This festive interaction with both the living and the dead is a way of recognizing the cycle of life and death.
