The night before Good Friday, entire communities stay up all night creating sawdust carpets in the street. The designs are geometric, floral, and religious, made by sifting colored sawdust through brass stencils. In Comayagua, the carpets stretch for 12 blocks. Children help with the borders. Grandmothers supervise the stencils. Nobody sleeps. . 2026: Apr 3. 2027: Mar 26.
