As Día de los Muertos approaches and the veil between worlds grows thin, we gather in comunidad to honor those we love, to tend to our grief, and to root ourselves in ancestral wisdom. With flowers, memory, and ritual, we weave together a space of healing and remembrance. We’ll move gently between reflection, ritual, and creativity, building a community altar together while honoring our loved ones.
Este espacio será en Spanglish — open to Spanglish comunidad, and anyone curious to connect with these traditions with respect, reverence and openness.
This gathering is hosted by Dr. Nubia of Raíces with Nubia in collaboration with Selena of Sunflor Co., a 2rd generation florist.

Nos moveremos con suavidad entre reflection, ritual y creatividad, co-creando un altar comunitario mientras honramos a nuestros loved ones.
