Day of the Dead Celebration

Participants will take part in a procession around the museum campus accompanied by mariachi musicians and dancers, and learn about the colorful Day of the Dead altar and its symbols and legends. Families can participate in a craft activity and explore the exhibits and more in the museum.

The Elmhurst History Museum connects people with history by presenting an eclectic mix of changing exhibits on a broad range of history-related topics, including a wide array of public programs, exhibit tours, school and scout programs, and special community events.
