The community arts center Self Help Graphics (SHG) celebrates its 50th Annual Día de los Muertos season, culminating this weekend with a mobile procession and celebration. Dress in your favorite Día de los Muertos outfit and take part in SHG's festive Día de los Muertos Celebration Procession from Mariachi Plaza in Boyle Heights to Civic Center Park in East Los Angeles. The procession is a little different this year. Meet at Mariachi Plaza at 2 p.m., then jump on the Metro L Line heading east to East LA Civic Center Park as a group, beginning at 2:30 p.m. (This will require participants to purchase their individual train ticket to participate.) The Día de los Muertos Celebration at Civic Center Park follows with altars by local artists and community members, an artisan Muertos Marketplace, Día de los Muertos-themed workshops and face painting, food by local vendors and live entertainment.
Traditional dancers perform during the 48th annual Día de los Muertos (Day of the Dead) celebration in 2021, organized by Self Help Graphics & Art. The 50th celebration takes place on Saturday, Nov. 4.
