In Mexican culture\, death is viewed as a natural part of the human cycle. Mexicans view it not as a day of sadness but as a day of celebration because their loved ones awake and celebrate with them. \n\n\n\nIf this is new to you\, you can watch the movie Coco to get up to speed! Or go on line and google Dia De Los Muertos.

Join us at our booth and check out all of our materials and find out how we can help you. \n\n\n\nSaturday Nov 239 am to 3 PMMayor’s Craft FairBlaisdell Center \n\n\n\nKōkua Mau’s Let’s Talk Story Program’s goal is to start and carry on the conversation in familiar settings\, breaking the ice to get people talking about uncomfortable but important topics. These conversations encourage and empower people to take action around their own health care wishes and our trained ambassadors allow participants to get answers to questions and understand decisions they may need to make. \n\n\n\nThe Let’s Talk Story program encourages groups to have two sessions. The two- session approach ensures good opportunities for sharing information\, reflections\, questions and time to talk with loved ones in-between. The two-session model allows time to evaluate follow-up actions. URL:https://kokuamau.org/event/mayors-craft-fair-2019/ CATEGORIES:Conference,Event in Hawaii,Event on Oahu END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
