Las Adelitas: A Day of the Dead Production
The following description was submitted by the event organizer.
The dead are commemorated every fall in Portland’s longest-running Día de Muertos (Day of the Dead) celebration. This year, Milagro observes their 28th Día de Muertos with an original production, Las Adelitas.
Las Adelitas will be infused with folkloric dance and music, accompanied by theatrical elements that celebrate the ancestors by building altars and sharing cultural traditions. Workshops will share altar-building crafts such as sugar skulls and paper flowers for decorating home altars.
