2018 Honoring our Mother Earth "lift her up"

in 2016 it was

Honoring Humanity Searching for a Better Life

Every year we choose to dedicate the event in honor of people, in the past we have honored children, grandparents, and the people that died in the September 11th tragedy just to mention a few. This year we want to honor all the migrants, immigrants, and refugees in the world. We think about people that must escape their places of origin because of political upheaval, lack of opportunities, and even persecution. Many die in the search of a better life for themselves and their family. We have seen this in the news and it is shocking, and it's also sad to think of tragedies we never hear of. To all of them we dedicate this year's Day of the Dead community event! This year thinking of all of them we came up with the title of the 2016 Day of the dead community event "Honoring Humanity Searching for a Better Life"
