Diá de Los Muertos... This weekend see some skeletons

At the Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art ...  
"Have you ever wondered about the skulls and skeletons associated with Mexico’s Day of the Dead? Originally part of Aztec traditions, these calaveras were adopted and repurposed by José Guadalupe Posada (1852-1913) to become the whimsical skeletons we know today."
