Wonderful southwest Indian art

This museum punches well above its weight. The Malinche exhibit and the Wit and Satire exhibit were fantastic. We went on a Sunday and were pleasantly surprised to get free admission, but even if you have to pay it's worth the price. Make sure you stop in if you're visiting Old Town.

My colleague and I are presenting a Unit on Frida, Diego and the Mexican Revolution to our ESL students. We are excited to teach this unit. Can you direct us to some resources that would help us to create a really great Unit? Thank you.

Laura Nunez | Oct 6, 2021
Jacqueline Anslow | Oct 6, 2021

The art museum recently took down the large Frida poster. So, I believe that this particular exhibition is finished. Great resources would be heavily based on the aspects of the ART. And How that defined the cultural heritage. Footage of Frida & Diego. https://fb.watch/5uDau6qY3k/ Recommend looking into art history books and the auto-biographical works of Frida Kahlo & their families.
