SUMMARY:Día de Muertos — Discussion with Malú Benton
LOCATION:Marvin Library Learning Commons\, Multipurpose Room\, 80 Vandenbur
 gh Avenue\, Troy\, NY
DESCRIPTION:Professor Malú Benton discusses Mexican Day of the Dead tradit
 ions at HVCC\, where an altar exhibition is also on view in the Marvin Lib
 rary Learning Commons. The pairing allows visitors to encounter the tradit
 ion through both a conversation and a physical display.\n\nAltars honor de
 parted loved ones and ancestors through carefully chosen objects and decor
 ations. The exhibition’s visual richness is therefore connected to remem
 brance: it makes relationships with those who have died visible within a s
 hared cultural practice.\n\nTuesday’s discussion provides context for vi
 sitors who know the holiday chiefly through its imagery. Readers can atten
 d the talk and visit the altar\, or see the exhibition separately during l
 ibrary access hours through October 30.\n\n\n\nAdmission: Free and open to
  the public\nOfficial details: https://www.hvcc.edu/about/news/archives/20
