About the event

Decorate your sugar skull!


In this workshop, you will decorate a sugar skull with beautiful and colorful handmade materials.

Let your heart and imagination open to the joy of creating a unique sugar skull.


Give yourself and your family a contemplative and relaxed present made with your creativity and hands.


A sugar skull is a must for your 'ofrenda' (altar) to receive your loved ones and to submerge into this ancestral tradition.

The sugar skull tradition is full of humour. In addition to using it for your altar, in Mexico, we put the name of a friend or family member on the forehead of the sugar skull, write a 'calaverite literary' (a humoristic poem), especially for that person, and give it as a present around November 2nd.
