Last Saturday, Councilmember Lena Gonzalez closed down parts of traffic in downtown Long Beach for the Second Annual Dia de los Muertos celebration in Long Beach. From 5:00 to 10:00PM, the area between sixth and seventh streets was closed. 

The Post was there to capture the long-celebrated Mexican holiday.
