Dia De Los Muertos Panel Discussion

Moraine Valley Community College Library Podcast

Día de los Muertos originated in ancient Mesoamerica (Mexico and northern Central America) where indigenous groups, including Aztec, Maya and Toltec, had specific times when they commemorated their loved ones who had passed away. Certain months were dedicated to remembering the departed, based on whether the deceased was an adult or a child. Hear from Moraine Valley staff regarding the tradition and how you can participate in this year’s ofrenda.
