Día de los Muertos for kids – KiKuFe

KiKuFe - At the Kinderkunstfest (Children's Art Festival) from 25 October to 2 November 2025, children can experience art in Viennese museums and institutions free of charge and without barriers. The Weltmuseum Wien is also taking part.

Día de Muertos – the Day of the Dead – is one of the most important holidays in Mexico. It is a celebration of life-affirming joy and love for deceased family members. On the occasion of Día de Muertos, artist Stephany Daphne Rodríguez Cabañas designed an altar at the Weltmuseum Wien, which we will look at together. We will also listen to stories about the festival, and afterwards we will create cheerful – and not at all creepy – figures!

Workshop in German language.
To participate in the event, all guests need a valid museum ticket.
Participation is free for annual ticket holders, Weltmuseum Wien Friends, Patrons, Members and Ambassadors as well as ICOM members and holders of the Kulturpass.
Registration:  kulturvermittlung@weltmuseumwien.at
Meeting point: Hall of Columns
