Wednesday, November 1, 2023 in the north, Park Rapids, MN

Doors open at 4:00 PM to 8:00 PM

This is a Historical Celebration happening in the north!

Gather with us at the new Giiwedinong Treaty Rights and Cultural Museum located at 101 2nd Street W., in Park Rapids, Minnesota.

We offer this time for ceremony, for honoring our grief, and the lives of those who have passed on. Días de los Muertos, Day of the Dead, is a Mexican holiday based on Indigenous traditions that embrace the interconnection between life and death. That is this time, the time between for change, transition, and future-building. Come to participate in building the ofrenda (offerings).

Enjoy the museum’s exhibits, music, Vallartas Mexican Grill and so much more beginning at 4:00 PM - 8:00 PM. Join us in this unique celebration in Park Rapids creating history of food, music, dancing, and pony rides plus so much more.

All are welcome to this FREE, family and multicultural event.
