Día de los Muertos Celebration
Hunter College, a proud Hispanic-Serving Institution, joins in the celebration of Hispanic Heritage Month with a vibrant and heartfelt Día de los Muertos Celebration organized by the Mexican Student Union (MEXSU) in collaboration with the Department of Romance Languages and the Undergraduate Student Government (USG).
This traditional Mexican holiday honors the lives of loved ones who have passed away through art, food, music, and community remembrance. The event will feature a beautiful community altar (ofrenda), live mariachi performance, DJ music, and traditional Mexican food.
Students, faculty, and staff are invited to take part in this collective tribute by bringing a small photo (no larger than 4x4 inches) of a loved one or pet to include on the altar.
It is a celebration of life, memory, and cultural heritage in an afternoon filled with color, music, and togetherness.
