Celebrate this special Mexican cultural holiday by learning the traditional use of the four elements to adorn nicho boxes—small shadow boxes filled with meaning and purpose that honor a lost loved one. Decorate a box with objects and found natural materials.

Kids can also make giant paper flowers inspired by marigolds and other colorful flowers that enliven traditional Day of the Dead celebrations.

At 11:30am and 12:30pm, families can learn more about the holiday with a storytime program in the Gund Theater, all ages welcome.
