¡WEPA! HalloWHITE :: Celebrating Souls :: Skulls, White Clothes, Flowers + Spirit of Tradition



This year, we have decided to celebrate Halloween with a "White Party"
on Friday, October 26th, 2012.

On our recent visit to Mexico, we were very inspired by the similarities in our cultural traditions. We share a mutual strong reverence for those who have passed before us.

They have "Dia de Los Muertos" - day of the dead - in which they use skulls and build altars to symbolize their respect for the deceased.

The true origin of Halloween is a ceremony honoring our ancestors and the day of the dead.

We encourage you to paint your face as a skull, bring flowers and 

come ready to celebrate the spirit of tradition.
