Halloween may be over, but the fall festivities aren’t over in Bushwick. What comes next is Dia de los Muertos or Dia de los Difuntos (technically the same thing). The holiday is celebrated in Latin America, though the well known calavera (sugar skull) imagery that is often associated with the tradition is from Mexico. Families hold gatherings, build alters and leave offerings for loved ones who have already passed away. And thanks to the different immigrant communities in and around Bushwick and Ridgewood, there are a number of celebrations this weekend.

Clear your weekend, it’s going to get interesting:
