The 13th installment of Ofrendas: Celebrating el Día de Muertos features ofrendas, or offerings, by local artists and community members. The annual exhibition, designed to familiarize visitors with ofrendas and the Mexican traditions of the Day of the Dead, builds a sense of community as visitors identify with the reasons and ways people honor the deceased while collectively taking part in the act of remembering. The display has become one of the DIA’s most popular exhibitions.

Developed in partnership with the Consulate of Mexico in Detroit, the Southwest Detroit Business Association and Mexicantown CDC.

General admission can be reserved in advance and is always FREE for residents of Wayne, Oakland, and Macomb counties.

On the final day of the thirteenth annual community exhibition Ofrendas: Celebrating el Día de Muertos, join a special discussion with the artists who created the altars on view. The program will begin with representatives from the Mexican Consulate offering insight into the rich history of Día de Muertos (Day of the Dead) and the tradition of Ofrenda altars. Each participating artist will then share the meaning and inspiration behind their altar and answer audience questions.

This program is for all ages, though some topics may be sensitive for children under 10.

Location: Detroit Institute of Arts (DIA) Lecture Hall, 5200 Woodward Ave., Detroit, MI 48202 

Free with museum admission. Capacity is limited and seating begins 30 minutes before the program start.

Ofrendas: Celebrando el Día de Muertos – Charla con artistas

La decimotercera edición de Ofrendas: celebrando el Día de Muertos presenta ofrendas de artistas locales y miembros de la comunidad. Esta exposición anual, diseñada para familiarizar a los visitantes con las ofrendas y la tradición mexicana del Día de Muertos, crea un sentido de comunidad, ya que los visitantes se pueden identificar con las razones y maneras de honrar a los fallecidos, a la vez que pueden tomar parte colectivamente en el acto de recordar. La muestra se ha convertido en una de las exposiciones más populares del DIA.

Desarrollado en colaboración con el Consulado de México en Detroit, la Southwest Detroit Business Association y Mexicantown CDC.

En el último día de la exposición comunitaria anual Ofrendas: Celebrando el Día de Muertos, te invitamos a una charla especial con las artistas que crearon los altares que están en exhibición. El programa comenzará con representantes del Consulado de México, quienes compartirán la historia y el significado profundo del Día de Muertos y la tradición de las ofrendas. Después, cada artista participante hablará sobre el mensaje y la inspiración detrás de su altar, y responderá preguntas del público.

Este evento es para toda la familia, aunque algunos temas podrían ser sensi- bles para niños menores de 10 años.

Lugar: Detroit Institute of Arts (DIA), Lecture Hall, 5200 Woodward Ave., Detroit, MI 48202
