One of the most important elements in a Day of the Dead Altar is the cempasuchil  flowers, also known as the Aztec Marigold. Their very distinctive scent is meant to guide the souls of our loved ones back to the ofrenda (the altar) reuniting them to the living realm for one night only. Altars may have a combination of fresh and paper flowers and families come together to make, gather and arrange the flowers in the altar. It is one of my favourite things to do in Ireland. 

This Paper Flower Making Workshop was designed as a parent and child activity, where little hands can learn to make the flowers and use them in creative ways. This once off workshop is part of our Day of the Dead at Picado Series, a micro festival celebrating this colourful Mexican holiday. 

Facilitated by the gorgeous Eli Duarte, from Caminando Se Resuelve, a project where migrants meet and reconnect with their identity through reflective arts & crafts, the workshop will allow parents and kids to make paper flowers together. 

We'll have some snacks and a complimentary soft drink. - This is a 2 hour workshop.

*THIS WORKSHOP IS DESIGNED FOR PARENT & CHILD duos - 5 to 12 year olds. 

We keep our classes small and reasonably priced, and while we know life happens, we do have a cancellation policy. We will always try to help wherever possible, but please take a moment to familiarise yourself with our cancellation terms below.

You'll get a full refund if you cancel at least three weeks before the class. If you cancel between two and three weeks before the class, you'll be entitled to a 50% refund of the class fee. If you cancel within one week of the class, we have sadly already planned and bought all the ingredients with your attendance in mind, so no refund will be provided.

However, if you cancel late, we’ll do our best to resell your seat. If we manage to fill it, we’ll happily refund your ticket. You’re also welcome to transfer your seat to someone else—just let us know in advance so we can accommodate any dietary restrictions!

Please note that not showing up to a class, for any reason, does not entitle you to a refund or a deferral to another class. We are unable to offer alternative dates for missed classes.

If your class was booked as a gift, the same terms and conditions apply.

If you need to defer your booking to a later date, it must be done within 12 months of your original class date. If the new class has a higher price, you’ll just need to cover the difference.

Picado Mexican Kitchen handles wheat/gluten, sesame seeds, and nuts on a regular basis, so bear that in mind when booking.
