Day of the Dead
Today is the Mexican "Day of the Dead" holiday or "Dia de los Muertos" which revolves around reunions of family and friends gathering around to pray, visit the graves of loved ones with offerings of flowers, food and candy skulls. The National Museum of Mexican Art in Chicago has a special Day of the Dead exhibit until December 16th.
