The beautiful and historic Church of the Angels will be the site of this special event combining the beauty of architecture, art and song in celebration of the Mexican holiday Día de Los Muertos. Come and delight in a courtyard display of arts and crafts for sale, made by local artisans. Enjoy complimentary wine and cheeses while listening to Mexican classics and Chicano oldies spun by DJ Tita Juana, known for her fabulous musical taste at clubs from Los Angeles to Glasgow.
The focal point of any Muerto celebration is the ofrenda ("altar"). Guests are welcome to bring a memento of their beloved departed to display on the community ofrenda which will be created specifically for this concert. Your memento could be a photograph, a food item or beverage or anything that represents what your beloved enjoyed in life. (Note: You will be responsible for retrieving your memento at the end of the night. FolkWorks and its agents are not responsible for any items left behind. In lieu of valuable photographs, we recommend bringing a copy of the photo you wish to display.)
The concert begins at 7PM inside the sanctuary and local Highland Park heroes I See Hawks in L.A. kick things off with their cosmic California country folk rock tales of myth and magic. The Christina Ortega Band closes the night with a cross-cultural sound that embodies the full spectrum of the Golden State's heritage. From the beloved norteño of the migrant farmworker, to the Western swing of Dustbowl-era Okies working the oil fields -- it all comes down to music by and for the people.
Join us for a night of merriment as we celebrate California and our ancestral muertos who come to partake in celebration of the life we share.
