Calavera Art Exhibit . October 29, through November
26, 2005 at The Ice House Cultural Center in Oak Cliff (1004 W. Page
Street, Dallas, TX 75208).
"La Calavera" is a popular image
used in the celebration of "El Dia de Los Muertos". Each year, in
Mexico, a time is set aside to honor those who have passed on from
this earthly domain. The celebration should not to be confused with
Halloween.

paintings, photographs, sculpture, mixed-media, and altars assembled
by area students, and the community.
Reception: Saturday, October 29,
