*General museum admission is FREE for residents of Macomb, Oakland and Wayne counties.

In celebration of Dia de Muertos, the Detroit Institute of Arts, in partnership with Detroit’s Mexican Consulate, the Southwest Detroit Business Association and Mexicantown CDC, invite you to explore a community exhibition of ofrenda altars.
