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.
