A free Dia de los Muertos celebration is coming to Chandler.
Honremos A Los Muertos-A Dia De Los Muertos Celebration will feature El Santo Golpe, a seven-piece band that honors different cultures, history, and traditions by using traditional instrumentation like eight-string Jaranas, Tarima (a wooden platform), Djembe, Primera, and accordion, as well as dances and expressions influenced by Mexican folklore, Bomba from Puerto Rico, West African dance, and more.
The family-friendly event will feature face painting, costumed Catrinas, a community altar, art-making activities and pre-concert music from De Cajón Latin Music.
The event starts at 6 p.m. Saturday, Nov. 2 at the Chandler Center for the Arts, 250 N. Arizona Ave. It all takes place in the CCA lobby.
Led by vocalist and artistic director Ulises "Cheese" Rodriguez, El Santo Golpe is influenced by the rhythms, sounds, traditions and folklore from Afro-Latin peoples around the world.
The L.A. based El Santo Golpe will take the stage at 7:30 p.m.
