Altar Exhibition honoring Day of the Dead Celebration
Indianapolis Art Center

Come and experience traditional and contemporary altars created by local artists, families, and community groups during the Art Center's Day of the Dead celebration! These beautiful and expressive works of art will be on display in the Churchman-Fehsenfeld Gallery and Basile Exhibition Hall.

About the Altar (Ofrenda)
The goal of constructing an altar, or ofrenda, is to honor and welcome back the soul of the deceased person. An altar may be dedicated to an individual or a group of people who have departed. Items on the altar should celebrate the spirit of the deceased in a way that encourages enjoyable memories.

The Altar is a Community Altar created by the Art Center's Outreach Department: Laura Alvarado, Eric Jones, and Michelle Winkelman
