THEME
During the annual Mexican celebration, Día de Muertos (Day of the Dead) it is believed that the souls of the dead return to visit their living families. Día de Muertos is an opportunity to remember and celebrate the lives of departed loved ones. It is a celebration of life not death. As the festivities are full of vibrant colors, joy, reflection, and celebration, we ask that artworks submitted for the call are as well.
