Their incredible altars will remain open for viewing until November 4th.

Honor a loved one who has passed and participate in this year’s communal altar by contributing your own personal photograph.*
An art installation spanning from October 28-November 4th where we ask members of the community to share their favorite Pier memories, photographs, and anecdotes of family and friends who have passed will be back again this year. These memories will decorate our space via our digital murals that surround the historic 101-year-old Carousel and will be displayed over the course of our celebration.
