The event kicked off at lunch Nov. 8, with Westgate Elementary’s Dia de Muertos student dancers performing. The students performed again in the evening for all families. Tables were hosted by families representing Egypt, Mexico, Bulgaria, Philippines, Eritrea, and Kenya.

The library had books from around the world for checkout and student work was displayed.
