Dia De Los Muertos In Fresno by

Posted in Night

CALA GALA : Arte Americas 25th Annual Dia De Los Muertos Celebration held in Downtown Fresno, California. Fresno is home to a large population of Mexican Americans which bring rich cultural celebrations from Mexico to the Central Valley of California. Dia De Los Muertos is a beautiful and colorful celebration that honors family members who have passed.

This picture was taken during the Candlelight Procession from Peeve' Public House in the Fulton Mall to Arte Americas. The trio were part of the Folklorico dancers that performed in front of Peeves.

It was an evening filled with Ballet Folklorico, painted faces, food, art and music.

@Eddie... lovely story to go along with your photo. We have a lot of Mexican/Mexican-Americans in Southwest Detroit and the celebration is becoming popular here.
