Day of the Dead 2024 at the Museum of the Moving Image
Celebrate a vibrant Day of the Dead at the Museum of the Moving Image with a performance of Aztec Mexica dance, ofrendas honoring loved ones who have died, fun digital media activities for kids and families, and music from Indigenous dance troupe Yayauhki Tezcatlipoka. Face-painting sessions are offered inspired by historical characters from Día de Muertos.
All are welcome to join the festive event in the museum’s courtyard, which includes a catrina and catrin contest hosted by artist historian Rosa Ruíz and Catrinamía. The celebration culminates in a 6:30pm screening of Alejandro Amenabar’s The Others (PG-13; 2001; ticket purchase necessary, discount offered), featuring Nicole Kidman in one of the most elegant and devastating ghost stories of the 21st century.
