The Latin American and Hispanic Student Organization celebrated El Día de los Muertos with food, music, crafts, dancing and the spirit of culture. El Día de los Muertos, translated to Day of the Dead, is a Hispanic holiday that honors friends and family who’ve died.
LAHSO has held the event for four years. Each year the organization aims at featuring Hispanics from various backgrounds.
“We try to bring different voices together to remember those we have lost,” said, event coordinator, Nora Atkins.
This year the event featured the Kentucky Salsa All-stars who made the experience even more entertaining, dancing to Cuban music performed by a live band on stage.
