SOMArts Cultural Center: In Their Name: Día de Los Muertos (opening reception)

Now in its 27th year, SOMArts’ annual Día de Los Muertos exhibition is one of the most internationally diverse Day of the Dead celebrations in the United States. Founded by beloved San Francisco artist and curator René Yañez, Día de Los Muertos at SOMArts continues to be an inclusive multigenerational gathering of remembrance while affirming the importance of arts and culture in shaping our world. Continuing the legacy of René’s work are co-curators Rio Yañez and Bridgétt Rex who envision a Day of the Dead exhibit that celebrates the tradition’s Mexican roots while welcoming cultures around the globe to honor the dead together in solidarity.
