Lydia Almeda retired social studies teacher and Fred Morales, author and historian, WILL TAKE US ON A GUIDED ADVENTURE.
Did you know the Mexican Revolution was planned in El Paso?
We will see the building from which Fransisco Madero and Pancho Villa planned the revolution, encounter Pancho Villa’s favorite soda shop, and explore the history of the disinfecting stations and refugee camps in El Paso. We will also learn about the impactful friendship between Tom Lea and fellow artist and refugee of the Mexican Revolution Jose Cisneros.
