Historias: Stories of El Paso - Virtual Exhibition
Historias: Stories of El Paso - Virtual Exhibition
Traditions It is said that every person is a whole world. Often, when we think of history we think in terms of notable events and people made famous by those events. We do not think of the larger population and how they shaped and continue to shape those narratives. Our stories whether written or handed down by word of mouth are what enrich our larger history through nuance. Historias is about everyone. It is about the experiences that shape and connect us to one another. We share these stories from our community to highlight individual memories of life, traditions, people, and landscape. The collection of shared memories come in the shape of poetry, accounts, and photos. We left them as such to give each contributor the creative freedom to tell their story.
