Altar on View at RLC in Celebration of Dia de Los Muertos
Welcome to La Historia Society, a platform dedicated to celebrating and preserving the rich cultural heritage of our community. On this page, we are excited to share with you the details of an extraordinary event: the Altar on View at RLC in Celebration of Dia de Los Muertos.
About Dia de Los Muertos
Dia de Los Muertos, or Day of the Dead, is an ancient Mexican tradition that honors and celebrates the lives of departed loved ones. It is a vibrant and meaningful holiday that takes place annually from October 31st to November 2nd. Unlike Halloween, which is often associated with spooky themes and costumes, Dia de Los Muertos is a joyous occasion filled with love and remembrance.
Altar at RLC
Our community event at RLC showcases a stunning and intricately designed altar, dedicated to celebrating Dia de Los Muertos. This beautiful installation pays homage to the memory of those who have passed away, creating a space for reflection, remembrance, and connection.
Symbolism and Elements
The Altar at RLC incorporates various symbolic elements, each with a special meaning behind it. Traditional offerings, such as marigolds, candles, incense, and elaborately decorated sugar skulls, are placed on the altar to guide and welcome the spirits of the departed back to the world of the living. This vibrant display of colors and smells creates a truly immersive experience for visitors.
Additionally, photographs, personal belongings, and favorite foods of the deceased are often included on the altar, serving as a reminder of their unique personalities and the cherished memories they left behind. These personal touches add an intimate touch, allowing visitors to connect on a deeper level with the loved ones being remembered.

The Importance of Remembering
Dia de Los Muertos is more than just a holiday; it is a deeply rooted tradition that fosters a sense of connection, unity, and understanding across generations. By remembering and honoring our loved ones who have passed away, we keep their memories alive and ensure that their legacies continue to shape our lives.
