The duties that volunteers perform are basic and
include welcoming visitors to the museum, providing the visitors with a

Dia de los Muertos Celebration in Lincoln on Saturday, Oct. 29: 10am to 4 pm
Family
activities include mask decorating, paper flower making, face painting
by popular local artists and displays of "ofrendas". These free events
will occur throughout the town of Lincoln. Dr. Cynthia Orozco will
demonstrate the building of an "ofrenda" and talk about this Hispanic
tradition. Mariachi bands and folkloric dancers will entertain. A
schedule of events will be posted at various merchants' locations. Door
prizes will be offered; get free tickets from participating merchants
in Lincoln.
The
story of Dia de Los Muertos (Day of the Dead), observed the world
over, is celebrated in many ways, including the decoration of cemeteries
and the building of "ofrendas", or altars to the deceased decorated
with flowers, food offerings, photos and mementos. This celebration
expresses the idea that death is not to be feared, but embraced as a
part of life. Communities and families await the return of lost loved
ones for food, music and fun.
Entertainment
will feature "La Ultima", a New Mexico Spanish music trio from
Carrizozo, "Mariachi Univo" from Carlsbad, NM, and "Lubbock's All Star
Mariachi Band" of Lubbock, TX;. The musicians will be performing for
the entire day, throughout Lincoln. The Hondo Dancers will perform
traditional Folklorico dances.
Featured speaker is Dr. Cynthia Orozco,
who will build an "ofrenda" for Juan Patron, the first known teacher in
Lincoln County and a speaker of the house for the Territorial
Legislature in the 19th
Century. While building the "ofrenda", Dr. Orozco will discuss the
history of the observance by indigenous people of Mexico, Europe and
the U.S. Orozco has taught New Mexico, Lincoln County, and U.S.
history, and the humanities at ENMU for 15 years. Born and raised in
Texas, she has personal experience with "Dia de Los Muertos". Her talk
will take place in the Lincoln Community Church at 3 p.m.
Local eateries will provide food and drink specials.
Plan
to bring friends and family to the Village of Lincoln for a fun-filled
and historical day, on Saturday, October 29th, from 10 a.m. to 4:00
p.m. For more information call 575-653-4045.
