Día de Los Muertos celebration and screening of ‘Coco’ at Potocki Center for the Arts Oct. 23

The Mission Viejo Activities Committee invites the community to a special celebration of Día de Los Muertos (Day of the Dead) at the Potocki Center of the Arts on October 23 at 3:30 pm.

The festivities will provide the chance to explore the educational and cultural significance of Day of the Dead traditions. Enjoy live Mariachi music, Folkloric Dance, sugar skull decorating, face painting, and arts and crafts. You can also bring a photo of a loved one or pet that passed too soon to add to our special Ofrenda (memorial altar).

This fun, low-cost celebration includes a screening of "Coco" at 6:30 pm. Patrons should bring a low-back chair or blanket to watch the movie.

Tickets are $5 per person for age 3 and older and require a signed waiver. To purchase tickets, call 949-470-3062 or visit cityofmissionviejo.org/register. Food, beverage, beer and wine will also be available to purchase at the event.
