Dia de los Muertos at River Song
By Seattle Mag October 26, 2012
Madison Valley’s River Song is one of our favorite jewelry shops. Not only does owner and jeweler River Burke make the most amazing jewelry from semi-precious stones, she travels the world to find them, adding a worldly cache to everything she creates. Burke returns from her travels with equally amazing, rare and unique gifts and treasures from the countries she visits, selling them in her cozy cool shop.
Thursday, November 1 from 5 to 9 p.m. is the Dia de Los Muertos Fiesta de River Song with $1 tacos, tequila, skull babies, and of course, jewelry. Bring cash for tacos, a photo of a loved one who has passed on for their altar and enjoy tax-free purchases for one night only.
