- El After Life: A Día de Los Muertos Celebration for the Community

  • Chula Vista Center 555 Broadway Suite 1021 Chula Vista, CA 91910 United States (map)

Open Invitation

Marigolds guide the way, candles flicker like heartbeats, calaveras represent our loved ones, and we share meals in their honor.

Each year, during Día de los Muertos, the worlds of the living and the dead overlap. Rooted in Indigenous traditions, this celebration honors the return of our loved ones, a ritual cherished by Mexicans around the world who gather to remember, share stories, connect to their homeland, and celebrate life.

El After Life celebrates how stories, rituals, and offerings live across generations. Through art, we set the table for those who came before us and invite them to share a night of laughter, love, and song.

We invite the community to participate in this unique celebration of Día de los Muertos, where art becomes an ofrenda, a luminous bridge between worlds.

Best of all, this is a free event created for the community, and everyone is encouraged to take part in honoring, remembering, and celebrating together.
