Hispanic Heritage Month is a month-long celebration that happens between September 15 and October 15 to acknowledge Hispanic and Latinx people in our spaces. 

As part of our month-long celebration, faculty and staff have decorated their office doors to honor Hispanic Heritage. Students are invited to walk the campus and vote on their favorite door through October 15th!

Music | Dancing | Food | Arts & Crafts | Altares & More

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.

Without William Shakespeare, we would not have literary masterpieces like Romeo and Juliet. But without Shakespeare’s friends Henry Condell and John Heminges, we would have lost half of Shakespeare’s plays forever! After the death of their friend and mentor, the two actors are determined to compile the First Folio and preserve the words that shaped their lives. They have to borrow, beg, and band together to get it done. Amidst the noise and color of Elizabethan London, The Book of Will presents a true story of love, loss, and laughter, and sheds new light on a man you may think you know.
