It was almost like being inside Coco, except I was not the only one living 🙂

Never knew Death could be so handsome 🙂

A young girl in make-up. It was beautiful to see and made me understand the film Coco better 🙂

I hadn’t expected people to wear this kind of elaborate make-up. Awesome!

Talk about a jacket with personality!

Last alter shown here though there were many many more at the National Museum of Mexican Art.

Another alter…

According to the museum info there were 90 alters. It was very moving to step into the space they created. Not sad, but moving.

Chicago hosts the National Museum of Mexican Art – and it’s all free. The museum sets up the Dia de los Muertos celebration on the grounds every year as well.
