Dear Members,
Once again, we are planning to assemble a Day of the Dead Altar/Ofrenda in front of THS on Burruel Street. We welcome your contributions in memory of deceased family and friends. We will also have an alter for your beloved animal family members.
Please drop off any articles you wish included on our altars on or before October 29th as we will be assembling them on the 30th. When you drop off items, please write your name, contact information, and a description of the items on the list at the front desk .The altar will be outside on the front porch day and night therefore please do not leave valuable or irreplaceable items. It will be dismantled on November 6th. You will be able to retrieve your items on that day or our next open day.
We hope you will participate once again this year. Last year (pictured) this was a wonderful remembrance of deceased family and friends.
Please research the meaning of these ofrendas online. There are many descriptions of the meaning of Day of the Dead with explanations of the symbolism of items too long to include in this letter.
Thank you,
Board of Directors
Tubac Historical Society
