Outdoor Altars

NOVember 1ST & 2ND 2020

In 2001 A group of residents from the Sherman Heights Neighborhood Cultural Council expanded the Altar/Ofrenda tradition to the homes throughout the community. This will be the 20th anniversary of some residents creating those atars on their porch or yards. We welcome ALL residents to create an ofrenda for family and loved ones and share in this beautiful and unique tradition in our neighborhood.

The altars on homes are not guaranteed to be up each year. There are neighbors that keep this tradition. The altars are up for the actual DIA DE LOS MUERTOS / DAY OF THE DEAD dates on NOVEMBER 1ST & 2ND throughout the Historic District of SHERMAN HEIGHTS.
