Giant puppets during one of the many parades. |
during Dia De Los Muertos.
Some photos from 2012 show that there were characters lurking around every corner during the evening festivities. Hmmmm...some faces you may recognize.
The giant puppets, dancing in the streets,were
a particular favorite.
The workshops were fabulous during the day and it spilled over into the evening with teachers and our students enjoying the local people,food, music and festivities.
We can hardly wait for next year to teach some exciting art techniques for our Totem De Vida, meet new students and of course catch up with those that are returning. We are so pleased at how quickly everyone
responded. We couldn't do this without you.
