On Oct. 24, attendees of Dia de Todos Santos (or All Saints Day) celebrated a day full of fun with mariachi troupes showcasing their skills, crafters making keepsakes and food truck offering delicious food. The Garden Church on 6th Street put on a Tree Of Life memorial featuring the children’s folklorico, Mariachi and traditional Ofrendas. There was also a free screening of the film, Coco, at the Warner Grand Theatre.
Each year provides more choices for enthusiasts of the holiday rooted in pagan practices. Bonfires and scary stories, haunted ships and, of course, a cemetery tour should always be on your list of things to do.
We may not often recall the history, but the festival marked the end of harvest for the Celtics and the beginning of the ‘darker half’ of the year. When Christianity came to Ireland an uneasy truce was created to meld the holiday with All Saints Day.
