Kitsap County Día de Muertos Festival (Saturday, November 1)

• 10:00 a.m. – 12:00 p.m.: Día de Muertos Scavenger Hunt will encourage community members to visit alters set up by local businesses throughout Bremerton, Silverdale, and Poulsbo (see map of locations).

• 1:00 p.m. – 4:00 p.m.: Día de Muertos Celebration at Olympic College will feature an elaborate Kitsap community altar, a beautiful Catrinas (decorated skulls) exhibition, games, food, live music, pan de muerto (traditional bread), candy, and activities for all ages.

Día de Muertos is one of Mexican culture’s most sacred traditions. It dates to pre-Hispanic times, and contrary to common belief, this is not a celebration of death, but a celebration of life, family, community, and culture. For the past three years, we’ve been proud to partner with Olympic College’s Latino Youth Coalition to share this joyful tradition with Kitsap County.
