Clear skies and enthusiastic participants made the Day of the Dead celebration in Tieton, Washington the best of the season. A program developed by Tieton Arts and Humanities, directed by Christopher Ornelas and Sylvia Imbach, empowered seniors of the local Highland high school to work giving cultural workshops for the community on this special day. The Drachen Foundation jumped in and supplied the design and materials for skeleton kites as well as an exhibit of the original kites of Guatemala.

Watch for this event next year, and join in the fun!
