First Fridays

Mikailuitl | Día de Muertos | Honrando Nuestras Raíces

Our Semillitas familia invites you to gather with us for a beautiful evening of remembrance, connection, and celebration. Rooted in our ancestral traditions of Mikailuitl, we honor those who came before us, celebrate the love that continues to connect us, and share the stories and memories that live on in our hearts and communities.

Come celebrate Día de Muertos with us as we fill the evening with arte, cultura, and the warmth of comunidad.
