Event Details
The Catrina Ball is a spirited and glamorous fundraising event that reminisces the past and recognizes our present accomplishments in visual art and culture. The event benefits Mexic-Arte Museum’s exhibition and education programs.
Following the remarkable debut of the Catrina Ball in 2015, the Mexic-Arte Museum and the 2016 Catrina Ball Co-Chairs and Committee are thrilled to keep the spirits alive with the 2nd Annual Catrina Ball! An elegant black-tie affair, and inspired by José Guadalupe Posada’s famous 1913 zinc etching La Calavera Catrina (“The Elegant Skull”), guests are invited to show off their dramatic Calavera/Día de los Muertos makeup, lush rose crowns, and other inspired couture.
This spirited and artistically-inspired evening is destined to become an annual legacy event of culture and fashion. All proceeds support the Mexic-Arte Museum’s Education and Outreach Programs and renowned exhibitions.
