Enjoy free live music, refreshments, and an art exhibit of locally made Day of the Dead Ofrendas (Altars) at East Nashville's Center 615.

This special community event, hosted by Alive Hospice, will include a memorial altar display, food, live music, drumming, a fire pit, and art therapy activities for kids and adults to celebrate the lives of our loved ones. Children's Craft Time from 4:00-5:30 p.m. will provide families with the opportunity to make special kid-friendly Day of the Dead themed crafts. Adult hours (ages 13+) from 5:30 - 7:00 p.m.

For COVID-safety masks will be required and capacity is limited.

Would you like to create an altar to display at our event? Join our Zoom info session on October 14, 2020, from 6 - 8 p.m. to learn more.

We will walk you through the simple steps to create a cigar box “altar” to celebrate a loved one who has died. Altars typically include photos of the loved one/s as well as objects representing their favorite things in life: food, drink, books, flowers, etc. Cigar boxes will be provided by Alive. Or use your own structure. This event is for all ages.

Zoom Info Session: October 14, 2020, from 6 - 8 p.m.
