For the third consecutive year, Tequila Casa Dragones and Rockefeller Center are proud to present "Mexico Week: Día De Muertos at Rockefeller Center" alongside The Consulate General of Mexico in New York City. Taking place from October 27 through November 2, the annual event celebrates Mexico's heritage and contemporary culture–this year highlighting a modern Mexican artist, Daniel Valero of Mestiz design studio based in San Miguel de Allende. New Yorkers can engage with Mexican art, music, and Día De Muertos traditions right in the heart of New York City.
"We're proud to be presenting this extraordinary altar at Center Plaza celebrating the very best of modern Mexico and reinforcing our commitment to contemporary art and design" says Casa Dragones CEO and Co-Founder Bertha González Nieves. "We are thrilled to invite viewers to interact with this symbolic portal that connects Rockefeller Center in New York City to our home in San Miguel de Allende, where they can celebrate life and embrace the spirit of Día de Muertos."
Events throughout the week include face painting, mariachi bands and tastings. For more information, visit rockefellercenter.com
