The El Paso
Museum of History in conjunction with the University of Texas at El Paso
and Museo Urbano present Healing Hands & Healing Ways: Traditional
Medicine in the Borderlands, opening Thursday, February 9, 2012. The
exhibit, guest curated by Dr. Yolanda Chavez Leyva, is a window into the
diversity of healing ways that make up Mexican traditional medicine,
historically and today. It is also a testament to the survival of medicinal
traditions that have been passed down from generation to generation over
millennia.
Healing Hands & Healing Ways is an invitation to
experience this healing history and to reconnect with our hearts, our
histories, and ourselves. The exhibit will be open to the public February
10- June 30, 2012.
