Our annual festival is back! Join us in celebrating Día de los Muertos. Enjoy art activities and performances by Mariachi Imperio and DC Folklórico Dance Company. Create calaveras and papel picado to decorate the community altar, get your face painted to look like la Catrina – and more!

Starting at 6:30 p.m., venture outside to see the live video artwork by artists MasPaz and Guache that will be projected onto the museum’s facade.

This event is free and open to the public.
