About this event
On Día de los Muertos itself, neighbours gather at the old South Works site to build community altar tables — photographs, flowers, objects that mattered — and walk the ofrendas together, with workshops on the symbolism running alongside.
Why we picked it
Día de los Muertos observed on the day, on the lakefront ruins of Chicago's steel industry.
