$D\u00eda de los Muertos (Day of the Dead)$

The Day of the Dead event is an extraordinary celebration of life, memory, and the enduring bond between the living and the departed. This vibrant event honors the age-old tradition where the spirits of loved ones are said to return to the world of the living, joining us for a day filled with joy, remembrance, and cultural richness.
Families come together to create beautifully decorated altars, adorned with mementos, favorite foods, and cherished items of those who have passed. These altars serve as heartfelt tributes, keeping the memory of the departed alive through shared stories, laughter, and the comfort of togetherness.
Greater Ottumwa Partners in Progress & LULAC Ottumwa is thrilled to bring you their Day of the Dead celebration on Saturday, November 2, 2024. This free community event will take place from 5:00 PM to 9:00 PM at the Knights of Columbus Hall.
