🎨 Celebrate Creativity at Art & Sip: Tunnel Book Day of the Dead Altar

🎨 Celebrate Creativity at Art & Sip: Tunnel Book Day of the Dead Altar

Raise a glass, grab your scissors, and get ready to craft something meaningful this week at the Longmont Museum’s Art & Sip! This Thursday, you’ll learn how to create a vibrant tunnel book altar — a layered, three-dimensional art piece inspired by traditional Día de los Muertos ofrendas. Local artist Ann Macca will guide you through each step, teaching the cultural significance behind the altars while you sip wine, beer, or fizzy water.

It’s not just about art — it’s about connection. Longmont’s creative scene thrives because of places like the Longmont Museum, where history, culture, and community come together under one roof. The museum’s Thursday Nights @ the Museum series continues to bring locals closer to the arts, offering a space where everyone — from beginners to seasoned artists — can express themselves and celebrate the stories that make our town unique.

So grab a friend, reserve your spot, and let your creativity flow. You’ll leave with a beautiful handmade piece — and maybe a deeper appreciation for how art keeps Longmont’s heart beating strong.
