SUMMARY:Annual Dia de Los Muertos Community Altar and Celebration in Downtown Lockhart
DESCRIPTION:Local Non-Profit Feria de Culturas will be sponsoring their Annual Dia de Los Muertos Community Altar as part of First Friday festivities on November 1\, 2019. The celebration honors the lives of deceased loved ones by placing an altar adorned with pictures of the dearly departed\, their favorite foods\, sugar skulls\, along with candles and marigold flowers. The festival is not to be confused with Halloween. Dia de Los Muertos is not a day for ghosts and goblins\, rather a day to remember and celebrate the lives of loved ones who have passed on. \nThis year\, Feria de Culturas is encouraging downtown businesses to participate in the event by displaying an altar of their own in their business. They can display a traditional altar honoring a deceased loved one\, or one displaying items sold in their business. If the business is a restaurant or bar\, they are being encouraged to feature a Dia de Los Muertos inspired dish or drink. \nThe entire community is encouraged to place a picture of a deceased loved one on the community altar which will be on display on the south end of the Caldwell County Courthouse on Market Street. Set up will begin on Friday November 1st at 3pm. \nFree pan de muerto and Mexican hot chocolate will be provided while supplies last. Pan de muerto is traditional sweet bread served on el Dia de Los Muertos. Also\, there will be face painting\, free crafts\, and a live performance by San Antonio based group THE CHIZME. THE CHIZME\, featuring Lockhart native Nicole Valdez\, gets the crowd moving with their style of cumbia\, rock en español\, and classic rock. You don’t want to miss out on this performance that will take place on the east end of the court house off of Main Street. The organization also hopes to add more entertainment to the evening’s lineup. The community is encouraged to bring their lawn chairs and dancing shoes. This FREE FAMILY FRIENDLY event will be held from 5pm-10pm.
