Self Help Graphics & Art 51st Annual Día de los Muertos Celebration

Boyle Heights-adjacent gallery and community center Self Help Graphics & Art has presented this Day of the Dead celebration for half a century. And though its brick-and-mortar location is currently under renovation, SHG will still stage its annual tradition, albeit with a few off-site tweaks. The event will still begin with a procession at Mariachi Plaza (2pm), but it’ll then move a few stops east on the E Line to L.A. County Civic Center Park, where you’ll find altars, a marketplace, food, face painting and live entertainment. Look out for some themed, family-friendly art workshops in the lead-up to the event at the East L.A. County Library (Oct 5, 12, 26: noon–3pm; Oct 19: 3-5pm).
