The Phinney Neighborhood Association’s (PNA) Día de los Muertos celebration honors Mexican culture while spreading joy and building community. The entire event surrounds a beautiful ofrenda (traditional altar in memory of lost loved ones) built for PNA by the poet Raul Sanchez. Those seeking to leave offerings can do so both during the event and in the week before.
