For 39 years and counting, the National Museum of Mexican Art has celebrated one of Mexico’s most extraordinary traditions with a multimedia exhibition. This year, Día de Muertos: A Celebration of Remembrance is dedicated to the Texans and New Mexicans who tragically lost their lives in 2025's flash floods. After you've toured the exhibition, make your way to the museum's courtyard space, which will house an installation designed and curated by the youth artists of Yollocalli Arts Reach. End your visit with a moment at the community ofrenda—add a note, drawing or memory to honor someone you’ve lost and be part of this collective tribute. As usual, admission is free—anyone is welcome to stop by the museum and pay their respects to those who are no longer with us.
