Día de los Muertos
IMLC Celebrates the Day of the Dead during the week of 10/31/23 (Tuesday)-11/03/23 (Friday). There are three ways to celebrate with us.
- Come and visit iMLC, enjoy the display created by the heritage-learner classes, and see how other students celebrate the week with poems and cultural artifacts created by students.
- Submit a poem. (We accept multiple submissions.)
- Submit a cultural artifact you created in celebration. (We accept multiple submissions.)
Submission details - all submissions are due on October 25. A faculty committee will judge your entries.
- Poem: You may bring your poem with a picture relating to your poem to the IMLC (Draper 356), or if it is an online submission, you may submit it via email and attach your photo to the email. The poem must be entirely in Spanish! Send your entries to iMLC@baylor.edu with the title "Day of the Dead entry."
- Cultural artifacts: You can take a picture of the artifact or bring it to the IMLC. (Examples of artifacts include - calaveras, pan de muerto, papel picado, etc.) Send the photo to iMLC@baylor.edu with the title "Day of the Dead entry."
A winner in each category will receive a prize and will be announced on the IMLC’s social media accounts in a post.
