For nearly 20 years, Atlanta History Center has partnered with the Consul General of Mexico and the Institute of Mexican Culture to host Day of the Dead on our campus.

One of the most engaging parts of our annual Day of the Dead program is the sense of connection and community that can be felt walking around our campus during the festival. While the pandemic prevented us from gathering this year, we hope you'll join us in celebrating Mexican heritage and this sacred holiday by exploring the virtual offerings below.

Enjoy this curated list of books to continue your exploration of Day of the Dead.

We have assembled virtual tours of some of Mexico’s best museums and art installations for you to visit from the comfort of your home.

• Frida Kahlo Museum
• Modern Art Museum
• Fine Arts Palace
• Dolores Olmedo Museum: Frida Kahlo Exhibit “Me pinto a mí misma” (I paint myself)
• National Art Museum

As we honor our deceased loved ones on Day of the Dead, we listen to music that reminds us of all the good times we shared, while speaking to our sorrow that they are no longer with us. Let this playlist & concert inspire memories of your loved ones.
