A celebration of life & remembrance

Join the Mexican Cultural Center for Gala de Catrinas & Calaveras, an unforgettable evening celebrating the beauty, artistry, and traditions of Día de Muertos.

Inspired by one of Mexico’s most treasured traditions, this special evening brings together culture, art, music, food, entertainment, and community in a vibrant celebration of life and remembrance. Surrounded by the iconic imagery of Catrinas and Calaveras, guests will experience a night that honors those who came before us while celebrating the traditions that continue to connect generations.

More than a celebration, Gala de Catrinas & Calaveras is the Mexican Cultural Center’s signature fundraising event. Proceeds support our mission and help make possible our year-round cultural, artistic, and educational programs throughout Colorado, expanding opportunities for communities to experience and connect with Mexican culture and traditions.

Guests are encouraged to embrace the spirit of the evening with elegant attire, Día de Muertos-inspired fashion, or traditional Catrina and Catrín looks.

Join us for an extraordinary evening where tradition meets celebration and where your support helps keep Mexican arts, culture, and heritage thriving for generations to come.
