 the Oakland Museum of California (OMCA) is transformed into a sacred space, 
 and this year our El Día de los Muertos Volunteer Committee members 
 welcome you, and every generation of your family, to their homes and 
 gardens, to join us virtually for one-hour of celebration with 
 Mesoamérican traditions. \n\nHelping us understand the context of this 
 year, the committee guides us through an opening ceremonia of the Four 
 Directions, invoking traditions that heal and comfort, while teaching us 
 how to build an altar for the dead. \n\nJoin us online and explore their 
 ofrendas (altars) honoring those that we mourn in the community, COVID-19, 
 California Fires, Immigration/ICE, and Black Lives Matter, with the Omnira 
 Institute.\n\nExplore the full Virtual El Día de los Muertos offerings at 
 OMCA at Home including resources and videos for teachers and parents, as 
 well as a multigenerational conversation between the teen Isabela Perez and 
 the founding curator of OMCA’s Days of the Dead special exhibition, Bea 
 Carrillo-Hocker. \n\nLearn how to make papel picado with educator Rebecca 
 Rocco, and explore historical content from 2019's ¡El Movimiento Vivo! 
 Chicano Roots of El Día de los Muertos, part of OMCA's virtual exhibition 
 tours, to learn about Chicano activists who introduced Día de los Muertos 
 traditions to the United States in the 1970s.\n\nThis virtual program is 
 FREE with an RSVP. As the event date approaches you will receive a link to 
 the live YouTube channel.\n\nPhoto: Shaun Roberts  \n
