How do I get there? Driving time from Oakhurst is about an hour. From Mariposa or Merced , take Hwy 140 to Catheys Valley , then turn north on Hornitos Road and follow the signs. From Oakhurst or Mariposa, take Hwy 49 North through Mariposa, then left on the Old Toll Road, or Bear Valley Road . If you have the time, and don’t mind bumpy pavement, we recommend the Old Toll Road. It is bumpy and narrow here and there, but a beautiful drive. Watch out for tarantulas crossing the road along the way, it is that time of year! Other routes are just as good, and may confuse the Federales if they are out to ambush you! Viva Joaquin! or...

		This exhibit is three days only, and takes place in the Historic Pacific Saloon ( 1861 ) located on the Plaza in the 19^th Century Gold Mining town of Hornitos . With a population of less than 100 people, Hornitos is a living ghost town, with a rich history of mining, ranching, and banditry on the lawless frontier! The exhibit will be open Halloween weekend, Saturday, Sunday, and Monday, Oct 31^st to Nov 2^nd . The best day to attend is All Souls Day, Monday, November 2^nd, for the artist’s reception. The reception takes place the same evening as the annual Day of the Day activities and candle lit procession held in Hornitos. We recommend arriving in the afternoon, exploring the town, visiting the exhibit, then taking part in the other Day of the Dead activities. As evening draws near, people gather in the Plaza, and candles are lit in the graveyard and along the procession route. The procession begins just after dusk and culminates with outdoor ceremonies at the cemetery, followed by an optional mass at the adjoining St. Catherine’s Church, then a fund raising feed back at the town hall benefiting the Hornitos Patron’s Club. It is a lovely and moving event, as well as a chance to honor friends and loved ones who have passed on. The exhibit will be open from 4 to 9 PM, closing briefly during the procession.
