Join the Center for Latin American Studies and the Center for Creativity to make papel picado in honor of the Day of the Dead!
Papel picado, the colorful cut paper banners used for Mexican fiestas, is translated as “minced paper” because it is made by cutting out shapes in a see-through pattern.
It is commonly displayed for both secular and religious occasions, and is often incoporated into altars during the Day of the Dead. Come learn its history and meaning and how to make it!
Snacks will be provided!
