Ofrendas 2023 Application and Guidelines

Each year, MECA also presents an Ofrendas (Altar) Exhibition, inviting community members to build an altar featuring photographs and personal belongings of their loved ones who have passed away.

Curated by Luis Gavito, last year’s Día de los Muertos Ofrendas Exhibition featured a community altar and an altar dedicated to the nineteen children and two teachers whose lives were taken too soon at Robb Elementary School in Uvalde, Texas.

Ofrendas '23 applications are now available!
Hopefully you will once again join us for this Mexican-inspired celebration of the cycle of life.  

​If you have any questions or concerns regarding Ofrendas '23, please do not hesitate to reach out to Luis Gavito, Ofrenda Curator, via email lgavito6@gmail.com or you may text him at 713-398-4947.
