El Dia de los Muertos (The Day of the Dead) focuses on bringing the family and friends together to honor those who have died.  This "celebration" occurs on November 1st and 2nd.  The 1st in remembrance of children and the 2nd for adults.  The Day of the Dead  is celebrated in Mexico and Hispanic communities in all parts of the world.  However, just about every culture has a ritual for celebrating life and death.  We invite "everyone" in Los Angeles to join together on this special day.
