In Mexican tradition, El Dia de los Muertos (English: Day of the Dead) is a time to remember deceased loved ones. The holiday (which sounds more gloomy than it is) is also somewhat of a celebration of life, since festivities are shared among friends and family. This month at Baku Gallery, art by local artists (William and Lauren Puckett, Joel Tracy, Joey Vernon, Amanda Powell, Hayley Lakeman, Jake Thorsell and more) pays homage to the spirited.
