Día de muertos. A celebration of life!

1.11.2019

The Postgraduate Hub along with the REx Staff, Rafael, Brenda, and Ricardo are co-organising a Mexican Día de muertos altar dedicated to late Mexican-Zapotec artist Francisco Toledo (17 July 1940 – 5 September 2019).

We would like to encourage the LAWN network to join, share some pan de muerto (a type of Mexican brioche with bone-shaped phalange and skull, and orange blossom water), fruits, pot coffee (coffee, damara sugar, and cinnamon), and chocolate atole (chaqueta). Mexican crafts from Michoacan and Oaxaca will be displayed at the PG Hub and at the Graduate. The programme includes the screening of the children’s film Coco (we would have preferred Macario...)

Programme

12:00 ~ 2:00 Altar, food and crafts exhibition. Screening of children’s film Coco.

4:00 ~ 6:00 Drinks at The Graduate, along with the MexSoc UniWarwick

All welcome!
