Sugar Skull Decorating at Celebraciones

← All Flagstaff events

About this event

Join us for Sugar Skull Decorating during Celebraciones de la Gente and take part in a cherished Día de los Muertos tradition. Sugar skulls (calaveras de azúcar) are colorful, whimsical confections that celebrate the lives of loved ones who have passed. Made from sugar and decorated with bright designs, they symbolize the sweetness of life and are often placed on ofrendas (altars) or shared as gifts.

Far from somber, these joyful creations bring warmth, memory, and celebration to the season. Master decorators will be on hand to help you adorn your own sugar skull to take home. The Sugar Skull Decorating workshops are perfect for kids and adults.
