🌼 This Friday is the last day to submit a photo for our Community Ofrenda! 🌼

Share a photo of a loved one who has passed away for inclusion in our Day of the Dead community altar.

📸 Submit your photo by October 9!
Upload your photo at the LINK IN BIO or drop off a 4×6 or 5×7 print at GWB 2.102.

The ofrenda is a space to remember, honor, and celebrate the lives of those we’ve lost, featuring photographs, personal items, marigolds (cempasúchil), candles, and other offerings.

Ofrendas are assembled to honor and celebrate the lives of those we’ve lost, welcoming their spirits back briefly to the physical world. The altar is adorned with photographs, personal items, and other orfferings to guide and comfort the spirits, marigold flowers (cempasúchil) to help them find their way, and candles to provide light.

All Longhorns are invited to be a part of this beautiful tradition!
