The Sugar Skull Shake, Shake is a one day festival that brings to our community the understanding and tradition of El Día de los Muertos, or the Day of the Dead, which in many parts of Mexico and South America is a time to honor and celebrate deceased loved ones. Community participation is an essential part of this special holiday that is full of life, reflection, food, family and fun. This festival is beyond just another event, it is an investment into our community's cultural values. It exhibits a willingness to unify our community and aspires towards a better, more artful, more educated and integrated place to live and love!
