Mark your calendar for the Sugar Skull Art Walk, a free community Día de los Muertos art project taking place in Downtown Placerville from October 13 through November 3, 2026. This welcoming local experience invites residents and visitors to explore creative displays while honoring traditions, memories, and community connections. Take a self-guided cultural art walk through downtown and discover local ofrendas created to celebrate and remember loved ones. Each display offers an opportunity to pause, learn, and appreciate the artistry and personal stories woven into this meaningful tradition. Make an afternoon of it by visiting nearby shops, cafés, and restaurants before or after your walk. Events like this showcase the character of El Dorado County and help connect neighbors with the small businesses and places that make Downtown Placerville special. Plan your visit beginning October 13, enjoy the art at your own pace, and share the experience with friends and family. For event details and updates, visit https://sugarskullartwalk.com/.
