The Mexican holiday, which honors and remembers the dead, was originally celebrated in the summer, but after a few hundred years and some mixing of Spanish Catholicism, it now takes place in the fall. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This year, the holiday falls on Oct. 31 and Nov. 1.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the Bay Area, community Day of the Dead celebrations are becoming more popular including the annual Dia de los Muertos Festival in Oakland, which is put on by the Unity Council. Organizers say the outdoor festival regularly attracts more than 60,000 people to downtown Fruitvale. This year's festival -- held on Sunday, Oct. 29 -- was the 22nd and included traditional Aztec dancing, live music, more than 100 Latin American vendors and 30 altars designed by local artists.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A large part of Dia de los Muertos includes building altars, or \u003cem>ofrendas\u003c/em>, to loved ones who have died. They’re filled with items that are thought to help guide spirits back home like attractive and fragrant yellow and orange marigolds. Copal and salvia incense is also often burned.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And of course, favorite foods of the dead, like avocados and apples, are laid out along with brightly colored sugar skulls, calaveras figurines, candles and photos of the deceased fill out the rest of traditional altars.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11626710\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/10/Image-uploaded-from-iOS-26.jpg\">\u003cimg src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/10/Image-uploaded-from-iOS-26-800x600.jpg\" alt='Lilia Olson entitled her altar \"Memories.\" ' width=\"800\" height=\"600\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-11626710\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/10/Image-uploaded-from-iOS-26-800x600.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/10/Image-uploaded-from-iOS-26-160x120.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/10/Image-uploaded-from-iOS-26-1020x765.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/10/Image-uploaded-from-iOS-26-1920x1440.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/10/Image-uploaded-from-iOS-26-1180x885.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/10/Image-uploaded-from-iOS-26-960x720.jpg 960w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/10/Image-uploaded-from-iOS-26-240x180.jpg 240w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/10/Image-uploaded-from-iOS-26-375x281.jpg 375w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/10/Image-uploaded-from-iOS-26-520x390.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003c/a>\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Artist Lilia Olson entitled her altar \"Memories.\" It is filled with photos, calaveras and other items important to her loved ones. \u003ccite>(Tiffany Camhi/KQED)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11626727\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/10/RS27801_Image-uploaded-from-iOS-5-qut.jpg\">\u003cimg class=\"size-medium wp-image-11626727\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/10/RS27801_Image-uploaded-from-iOS-5-qut-800x600.jpg\" alt=\"Artist Gonzalo Hildago included a reference to DACA -- or Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals -- on his altar.

The Mexican holiday, which honors and remembers the dead, was originally celebrated in the summer, but after a few hundred years and some mixing of Spanish Catholicism, it now takes place in the fall. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This year, the holiday falls on Oct. 31 and Nov. 1.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the Bay Area, community Day of the Dead celebrations are becoming more popular including the annual Dia de los Muertos Festival in Oakland, which is put on by the Unity Council. Organizers say the outdoor festival regularly attracts more than 60,000 people to downtown Fruitvale. This year's festival -- held on Sunday, Oct. 29 -- was the 22nd and included traditional Aztec dancing, live music, more than 100 Latin American vendors and 30 altars designed by local artists.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A large part of Dia de los Muertos includes building altars, or \u003cem>ofrendas\u003c/em>, to loved ones who have died. They’re filled with items that are thought to help guide spirits back home like attractive and fragrant yellow and orange marigolds. Copal and salvia incense is also often burned.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And of course, favorite foods of the dead, like avocados and apples, are laid out along with brightly colored sugar skulls, calaveras figurines, candles and photos of the deceased fill out the rest of traditional altars.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11626710\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/10/Image-uploaded-from-iOS-26.jpg\">\u003cimg src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/10/Image-uploaded-from-iOS-26-800x600.jpg\" alt='Lilia Olson entitled her altar \"Memories.\" ' width=\"800\" height=\"600\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-11626710\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/10/Image-uploaded-from-iOS-26-800x600.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/10/Image-uploaded-from-iOS-26-160x120.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/10/Image-uploaded-from-iOS-26-1020x765.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/10/Image-uploaded-from-iOS-26-1920x1440.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/10/Image-uploaded-from-iOS-26-1180x885.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/10/Image-uploaded-from-iOS-26-960x720.jpg 960w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/10/Image-uploaded-from-iOS-26-240x180.jpg 240w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/10/Image-uploaded-from-iOS-26-375x281.jpg 375w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/10/Image-uploaded-from-iOS-26-520x390.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003c/a>\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Artist Lilia Olson entitled her altar \"Memories.\" It is filled with photos, calaveras and other items important to her loved ones. \u003ccite>(Tiffany Camhi/KQED)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11626727\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/10/RS27801_Image-uploaded-from-iOS-5-qut.jpg\">\u003cimg class=\"size-medium wp-image-11626727\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/10/RS27801_Image-uploaded-from-iOS-5-qut-800x600.jpg\" alt=\"Artist Gonzalo Hildago included a reference to DACA -- or Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals -- on his altar.
