About
Mexico's Day of the Dead comes to the National Museum of Ethnology in Belém with an afternoon for families: painting, face painting, a piñata and folk dancing. It ends with the opening of a new exhibition on the tradition, organized with the Embassy of Mexico, followed by pan de muerto and hot chocolate. It suits kids who like making things and families curious about the holiday's colors and symbols.
