Explore the rich tradition of colorful mask making, musical artistry, and intricate weaving. Honor the upcoming festival of Día de Los Difuntos (All Souls Day) or Dia de Los Muertos (Day of the Dead) by creating an expressive mask. On mini looms, use yarn and other materials to interlace a unique piece of artisan weaving. Celebrate ancient musical folklore with percussion and rhythms on a Guacharaca, a percussion instrument historically made from small palm trees.
