Día de los Muertos: Mourning and Remembering through Ecological Change will explore cross-cultural grief in the context of environmental and species loss. Join us on November 1 from 11am-1pm at the UCLA Mathias Botanical Garden for ofrendas, art, and talks on topics such as deforestation, extinction, and environmental colonialism and imperialism. We’ll have snacks and drinks including champurrado and a variety of pan dulces. Come early for a Guided Garden tour at 10 am. This event is free and open to the public; it is hosted by the Laboratory for Environmental Narrative Strategies (LENS), Environmental Humanities Reading Group (EHRG), and Radical Imagination Coalition (RIC), and is co-sponsored by the UCLA Mathias Botanical Garden and Center for Developing Leadership in Science (CDLS). If you are interested in contributing an ofrenda, art, or your time to this event, please email Elijah Catalan (elijahcatalan@g.ucla.edu) and Olivia Simon (oliviameyers@g.ucla.edu) with a short description of how you would like to be involved and “Día de los Muertos: Request to Participate” in the subject line.
