El Paso’s Homegrown: The Korean War

Jul 27, 2024 - Jul 26, 2025

“El Paso’s Homegrown: The Korean War” is an original exhibition dedicated to exploring El Pasoans and the Korean War (1950 - 1953). Opening on the anniversary of the signing of the Korean Armistice Agreement, this exhibit will showcase the many facets of El Pasoans' experiences, from their service abroad in Korea to their lives as Korean and Korean-American citizens. In addition to artifacts from the conflict itself, the exhibit will also feature Korean history, culture, and the ongoing relationship between the United States and Korea. This exhibit is the latest in the ongoing series El Paso’s Homegrown, which began in 2022 with an exhibit about El Pasoans and World War II. 

“El Paso’s Homegrown: The Korean War” opens to the public at 1pm on Saturday, July 27 and will be on display through July 2025!
