Event Details

Drop in outside the South Branch Library to create a nicho that will be displayed at the Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art on their Dia De Los Muertos altar! A nicho is a three dimensional box created to honor someone who has passed before us. You are welcome to bring a picture to place inside your nicho, we will provide all other supplies. Your nicho will not be able to be returned to you after it has been displayed, so let us know if you'd prefer we make a copy of your picture.
