“Al Borde, the award winning bi-weekly Latin Alternative publication, celebrated the traditional Mexican and Central-American festivity “Dí De Los Muertos” (Day of the Dead) by hosting a cultural celebration to support local artists and students. More than 600 people attended the event on Nov. 2nd in what once was a Mortuary in East Los Angeles, now known as El Gallo Plaza Cultural & Business Center.

Young and trend-setting Latinos were treated to an exhibition and contests of two-Dimensional alternative art and altar displays celebrating “Dí De Los Muertos” with traditional marigolds and “pan de muertos.” The night ended with a live performance from the Latin Alternative band “Curanderos.” The event brought together professionals, business owners, the corporate community, college students and local artists to raise awareness of the vibrant alternative art and grassroots Latin culture that flourishes in Los Angeles. “
