We invite you to participate in the Muertos Candlelight Procession. Join the procession from either the Centro Cultural de la Raza or Sherman Heights Community Center.

We are excited to collaborate with Fandango Fronterizo in this unique, festive and communal musical experience.

A Fandango is a lively musical event with communal participation. It shares the music of son jarocho, a traditional form of music from the south of Veracruz which incorporates Spanish, African, and Indigenous influences.

Fandango de Muertos will take place outdoors, under the stars on Thursday, October 24th.
