Just
in time for Halloween, the Natural History Museum will transform its
Nature Gardens into a hauntingly whimsical interactive light-up
experience for all ages. Featuring familiar sights for long-time Boney
Island fans – skeletons performing rope tricks, levitating through
hoops, shadow puppetry and more – NHM will put its own spin on the event
with artistic performances, real fossils, live animal presentations,
trick-or-treating, and other ghoulishly glowing installations. Explore
and wander through the garden paths, as creepy crawlies, silly skeletons
and carnivores from the Cretaceous abound!
The
Simpsons producer Rick Polizzi created Boney Island for his family more
than 20 years ago. It grew from a front yard display to a huge affair
in Griffith Park with a cult-like following of Halloween lovers of all
ages. The attraction closed in 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Now,
after a three-year hiatus, the crowd-pleasing event will be resurrected
in Exposition Park.

Olvera Street
For over 35 years, the merchants on Olvera Street have celebrated Dia de los Muertos. The celebration has evolved to incorporate the pre-Columbian, Aztec, Mayan and Catholic rituals surrounding death. Each night, a vibrant and colorful procession sets the stage for our ceremony.
Dia de los Muertos is, in fact, a celebration of life – it is not a time to mourn our loved ones, rather it is a time to remember the lives they lead and the many things they enjoyed during that life. Death is a part of life, and so we honor it. Dia de los Muertos at Olvera Street is the only celebration of its kind in Los Angeles – A nine (9) day festival, with a nightly procession, community altars on display, and entertainment.
