The altar weaves together elements that invite visitors to engage through their senses\, utilizing plants\, fruits\, and culinary traditions from the Andes. Traditions associated with Día de los Difuntos includes two distinctive culinary items: guaguas de pan\, sweet bread figures shaped and decorated like babies\, and colada morada (or its fermented version\, yana api)\, a thick beverage that is made with fruit and spices and used in rituals and celebrations tied to the agricultural calendar. \n\n\n\nInspired by guaguas de pan\, visitors are encouraged to craft their own offerings for the altar by shaping fondant into doll-like figures or objects commemorating their departed loved ones.

The altar weaves together elements that invite visitors to engage through their senses\, utilizing plants\, fruits\, and culinary traditions from the Andes. Traditions associated with Día de los Difuntos includes two distinctive culinary items: guaguas de pan\, sweet bread figures shaped and decorated like babies\, and colada morada (or its fermented version\, yana api)\, a thick beverage that is made with fruit and spices and used in rituals and celebrations tied to the agricultural calendar. \n\n\n\nInspired by guaguas de pan\, visitors are encouraged to craft their own offerings for the altar by shaping fondant into doll-like figures or objects commemorating their departed loved ones. They may also leave personal items\, such as mementos\, photos\, or flowers\, upon the altar. The large urn at the center of the Chapel will be filled with yana api as an offering to those who have passed. \n\n\n\nRaul Ayala is a visual artist and educator focused on mural production\, drawing\, and public art.

SUMMARY:The Past\, Present\, and Future of the Grave
DESCRIPTION:In the 186 years since Green-Wood’s founding\, a lot has changed in the way the dead are cared for in the U.S. The introduction of embalming\, the rise of cremation\, a recent return to green burial\, the list goes on and on. \n\n\n\nThis walk will be led by Allison C. Meier\, longtime Green-Wood tour guide and author of the recently published Grave (2023).

The altar weaves together elements that invite visitors to engage through their senses\, utilizing plants\, fruits\, and culinary traditions from the Andes. Traditions associated with Día de los Difuntos includes two distinctive culinary items: guaguas de pan\, sweet bread figures shaped and decorated like babies\, and colada morada (or its fermented version\, yana api)\, a thick beverage that is made with fruit and spices and used in rituals and celebrations tied to the agricultural calendar. \n\n\n\nInspired by guaguas de pan\, visitors are encouraged to craft their own offerings for the altar by shaping fondant into doll-like figures or objects commemorating their departed loved ones.
