A week ago Sunday we visited the main branch of the Gail Borden Public Library District, a mid-sized, newish building near the Fox River in far west suburban Elgin, Illinois. First time at that library. Quite impressive, looking like a place where people want to go, looking for some specific information, or just to see what they could see.
Inside the front entrance the space opens up into a round, which functions as a hub for the rooms that are the library’s spokes.
Prominent against a wall was the Community Ofrenda – Ofrenda Comunitaria.
Calaveritas decorativas. That’s a good thing to know, the Spanish for the multitudes of decorative skulls in the worlds.
The faces of Día de los Muertos.
