Community Ofrenda (ages 6-11)

Community Ofrenda for Kids

Ages 6-11

Fridays September 27-October 25 from 5:30-6:30pm

Come work individually and together on a community ofrenda (an artistic altar that honors those who have passed). This class is inspired by the Days of The Dead, but you do not have to believe in or practice this holiday to participate. The goal is to creatively honor our loved ones and/or pets who have passed on (or cherished endangered or extinct animals) as a community while also honoring each other. Participants can decide on the art form they would like to use - portrait drawing, watercolor painting, diorama, clay figures, etc.

Sarah Porter Cruz

Hi! My name is Sarah Porter Cruz and I grew up in Oberlin taking FAVA art classes. My favorite subject in high school was Art! After graduating from The Residential College at The University of Michigan, I lived in California and taught elementary school for 20 years. I am so happy to be back in Oberlin with my family! In my profession of teaching I have integrated the arts wherever possible, as they are essential to human happiness and the betterment of the world. They are also a universal language that helps promote bilingualism and understanding, and I celebrate that.

scholarships & aid

FAVA reviews and considers all application for scholarship assistance. While we may not be able to provide a complete scholarship to all those who request it, we are committed to making our classes available to as many people as possible – regardless of individual financial circumstances. For this reason, it is important that all scholarship requests are received well in advance of the class starting date, so we may allocate our available funds accordingly. We may consider any of the following factors when determining eligibility for scholarships:

  • Annual family income
  • Individual or special circumstances
  • Whether the applicant qualifies for the National Free/Reduced Price School Lunch program
    (for students age 18 & younger)


**FAVA also encourages applicants to consider partial scholarship assistance, in which case the student only pays some portion of the class tuition.

All information will be kept confidential and will be used solely to determine the amount of scholarship assistance to be provided.
