The Kensington Stewards are a neighborhood group that recently organized a popular event.
The event, which was organized for the third year in a row, celebrated the Day of the Dead which honors deceased ancestors. The event was held at PS 179 on Avenue C and included activities, performances, and music.
Traditional Mexican dancers and musicians from the band Mariachi Fiesta performed, and free food was served during this five-hour fiesta. Child-friendly activities including face painting and dancing were part of the fun.
The menu included traditional Mexican dishes such as tacos, tamales, Mexican sweet bread, and arroz con leche.
