Reception: October 22, 5-8:00 pm

This Day of the Dead-inspired exhibition is the centerpiece for a month-long series of cultural presentations and educational programs that explore the traditions of this important Latin American holiday that remembers and celebrates the departed. Organized especially for RGAC by Avenue 50 Studio, a Latino community art center in Los Angeles, the exhibition showcases the paintings, drawings, prints, and sculpture by 30 prominent Latino artists from the Los Angeles area. The major theme of the exhibition, co-curated by Avenue 50 Studio executive director, Kathy Gallegos, and Los Angeles Community College professor of Mexican Art History, Raoul De la Sota, focuses on the practice of preserving memories of our ancestors that is shared among so many cultures throughout the world.
