Dia de Los Muertos is a traditional way to welcome back the souls of deceased relatives.
An event in Oxnard will bring the celebrations to the South Coast on Saturday.
"This has become one of our signature events," Carolyn Merino Mullin, the executive director of Oxnard Performing Arts Center, told KCLU.
She says it’s a celebration for all.
"It also extends into other communities like the Filipino community. Traditionally these cultures go to the cemetery to honor the loved ones who have passed away," she said.
The event will include, "Traditional alters, performing arts, visual arts and food," said Merino Mullin.
The event is free and being held Saturday, November 5 from 4 to 10 p.m.
