Your Friday evening update on Salem news

Good evening from your team at Salem Reporter.
Whether you’re looking to celebrate Dia de los Muertos, pick up a pumpkin or just get some candy with your kids, there’s no shortage of events around Salem this weekend.
Our updated Halloween and fall event guide, below, now includes a Saturday evening offering from the Salem Art Association. As part of the Aeterna exhibit, a community altar to remember the dead, the association is hosting a Dia de los Muertos celebration featuring music, traditional dancing and Mexican food.
Check it out at the Bush Barn Art Center, 600 Mission St. S.E., from 6-9 p.m.
