Every fall, the dead are commemorated in Portland’s longest running Día de Muertos celebration. This year, Milagro presents a celebration of our chosen families with a story filled with love and joy, that honors the ChangeMakers who have helped shape generations past, present, and future.
Listen to the ChangeMakers of years past as they enlighten one’s sense of belonging with an ultimatum, a choice, and a song. This Día de los Muertos, let the music guide you on a journey of self-acceptance, individuality, and finding family where you least expect it in Canciónes de la Familia.
Content Advisory: This production will likely contain strobe lighting effects and theatrical fog/haze
