This reminder just received on our neighborhood network, from Pittsburg's California Theater:
Dia de los Muertos in East Contra Costa observances combine fun and remembrance
Celebrating a cultural event with ties all the way back to the Aztecs, East County families will gather on Saturday, sharing the belief that the spirits of deceased loved ones return to reunite with their families on this day each year.
In East County, Pittsburg will hold a two-day celebration, Oakley a cultural workshop and in Antioch a special Mass and light celebration at Holy Cross Cemetery.
Pittsburg's Dia de los Muertos, sponsored by the Pittsburg Arts & Community Foundation with help from others, will be Saturday and Sunday at three locations where exhibits, entertainment and activities reflect the theme "Pensando en ti" or "thinking of you."
