Panteón is our annual Día de los Muertos festival, a time and space where the living celebrate the dead. By bringing both worlds into the same setting through traditional altars, live performances, art installations, a Catrina contest, a procession, and much more, we create an active connection that bridges the gap between past and present. It is here that the wisdom of our ancestors meets the energy of the next generation.
What started as a small community gathering has grown into one of the most unique cultural traditions in Ventura County. Now in its 4th year, the festival continues to evolve as a living legacy, a place where we collectively mourn, celebrate, and honor those who came before us, ensuring their stories carry forward.
