## About

Scissortail Park's Day of the Dead festival, presented by Supermercados Morelos, honors life and loved ones with an afternoon and evening of dance, music and tradition. The park lists a cultural market, community ofrendas (altars), food trucks, colorful art, face painting, interactive activities, live music and traditional dances, plus a Catrina contest and a Catrina and Alebrije pet parade. A good outing for families who want to see ofrendas and folk dance; the full list of performers and vendors was still to be announced.
