NOCHE DE MUERTOS - MUSEUM OF INTERNATIONAL FOLK ART



The revelers were dressed to the 'nines' - colorful flower tiaras; faces 
painted to enchant; costumes meant to dazzle. Ah, such allure for my camera. What a colorful and  gorgeous evening at the INTERNATIONAL FOLK ART NOCHE DE MUERTOS fund-raising gala dinner.

SKULLS WERE EVERYWHERE!

  



THE GALA DINING ROOM WAS LIKE A
DAY OF THE DEAD STAGE SET...



The jewel-toned napkins were gorgeous...as were the amazing Day of the Dead centerpieces...each one different...







The dinner...the auction...and the post party dancing were a success and all went to support the Museum of International Folk Art's exhibitions and educational programs through the Museum of New Mexico Foundation (MNMF).
