Celebrate this special Mexican cultural holiday by learning the traditional use of the four elements to adorn nicho boxes—small shadow boxes filled with meaning and purpose that honor a lost loved one. Decorate a box with objects and found natural materials.

Please note:

  • Approximately nine families will be able to participate at a time, based on the time each family arrives.
  • If capacity is full when you arrive, you'll receive a “come back” card so you will have first entry for the next session.
  • Each family will receive its own set of materials and cleaning will happen in between seating participants.
  • Unvaccinated visitors are encouraged to wear a mask inside.
