Performers at the 2016 Día de los Muertos event at the Center for Arts & Culture.

Volunteer with YLND for Day of the Dead! The Notre Dame Center for Arts & Culture (NDCAC) and the Indiana University South Bend Civil Rights Heritage Center (CRHC) are hosting their annual Día de los Muertos (Day of the Dead) on Thursday, November 2.

The art exhibit showcases altars created by artists and community members to remember those who are no longer living among us. Last fall, they had 15 phenomenal ofrendas in the NDCAC, and this year, they are anticipating 20 to be located in the NDCAC and the CRHC.

The event includes performances, traditional pan de muerto, and family-friendly activities such as facepainting and crafts. Volunteers are needed for two shifts — 5:15 to 6:15 p.m. and 6:15 to 7:15 p.m.

Please RSVP using the form below or at this link by Oct. 30.
