The Hispanic/Latino event planning committee cordially invites you to save the date for the 12th annual Día de los Muertos (Day of the Dead) event.

Day of the Dead celebrations date back thousands of years ago when Indigenous people from central Mexico would honor their deceased by placing food and water offerings on their resting place. In modern-day Day of the Dead celebrations, family members continue to practice these traditions by building altars (altares) where they place pictures of their beloved family members along with food and other items their family members enjoyed during their lifetime.

We hope you join us in an evening of celebrating with music, dancing, piñatas, entertainment & activities. Local vendors will be on-site selling delicious food, too.  

If you are interested in putting up an altar in remembrance of a loved one, please email Roberto Renteria at rrenteria@mendocino.edu.

Altars will be on display in the Lowery Student Center from Friday, Oct. 18th until Friday, Oct. 25th.

Suicide is one of the leading causes of death in the United States. The Center for Disease Control and Prevention estimates that every 11 minutes, there is 1 suicide death. Those left behind grieve and struggle to make sense of the loss. Stigma prevents people from reaching out because suicide is complex. 

On November 18th, we will gather to provide support and understanding to those of us who have been impacted by suicide. Within the safety of a Sharing Circle, we will offer care and consideration for those affected.  Please join us as we provide support for our community in this important way. Light refreshments will be served. For more information, please email: wellness@mendocino.edu
