Día De Los Muertos: Calaveras, ofrendas and pan de muerto, oh my!

The Diversity Achievement Center (DAC) put together an altar and began accepting ofrendas on Oct. 31, in preparation for Día de los Muertos.

The DAC will celebrate by preparing Mexican hot cocoa and pan de muerto ( “dead bread” ), face painting, and decorating sugar skulls on Nov. 1 beginning at 10 a.m.

Bianca and Perla Pulido added final touches to the altar throughout the morning, adding marigolds, fruit and a string of flowers that adorns the sign above the altar.
