Yesterday, third year Spanish Language students enjoyed Halloween Day with a visit to the Latino Cultural Center of Dallas. The Center is currently celebrating the Mexican tradition of Dia de los Muertos (Day of the Dead) with an exhibit of art from the local community. In fact, two of the altars on display came from Spanish language students at Ursuline! It was a beautiful day, perfect for enjoying the vibrant and thought-provoking exhibit.

Such an interesting painting in memory of a loved one ... |
