11th Annual Día De Los Muertos (Day of the Dead) Celebration & Fundraising Dinner

This evening event under the stars on the museum’s beautiful campus features dinner, live entertainment, tequila tasting, art exhibitions and ofrendas (altars), opportunity drawing, and a silent auction. The celebration commemorates a Mexican tradition everyone can enjoy that honors the ancestors and loved ones who have come before us, and the fundraising dinner ensures the museum continues its Mission: to preserve, interpret, and share the rich history of the Coachella Valley for generations to come. To find out more about the museum and programs and events we offer, please visit CVHM.org.
