Outside of work, you can likely find her curled up on with a hot cup of coffee, practicing yoga, baking, or exploring the beautiful Lone Star State (in particular, the vast and mystical West Texas desert).
If you’re like me and pack your fall calendar full of fun and festive events, I have exciting news for both of us. The annual El Paso Día de los Muertos parade is returning on October 28, 2023, and (as always) it promises to be a colorful, vibrant, and all-around unforgettable afternoon. Get your face paint out and prepare to have an amazing time.
Presented by the El Paso Museum of Art, the city's annual Día de Los Muertos celebration will once again return to the Downtown Arts District on October 28, 2023.
Festivities kick off at 4 p.m. sharp, and the event is free for all ages. There are numerous activities lined up, but the parade is by far the most highly anticipated of them all.
Colorful, elaborate floats make their way through the streets of downtown, offering plenty of photo-worthy moments (so be sure to bring a good camera!).
Have you ever attended the El Paso Día de los Muertos parade? If so, tell us your thoughts in the comments! While you’re in town, I highly recommend checking out Franklin Mountains State Park – specifically the El Paso Tin Mines Trail. It’s spooky, fascinating, and perfect for nature lovers.
