Free Event - Join us for a discussion on women in the punk scene as part of our "Musica Sin Fronteras" exhibit! Moderated by Marina Monsisvais (KTEP - State of the Arts), this panel will feature Tara Marin Lopez, Lindy Hernandez, and Bobbie Welch in conversation about the liberations and limitations of our region's punk scene. The talk will explore the history of local acts, women's many roles, the impact of the border and Chicanx identities, and how these stories reflect larger national narratives. Guests are encouraged to join the conversation with their own questions, memories, and experiences.

…

Merienda Talks are a free ongoing series at the El Paso Museum of History that explore current exhibits through informal conversation with experts. In Mexico, “merienda” is a time to share conversation with friends over a bite to eat. In the spirit of merienda, our talks bring the public and professionals together to discover exhibits through discussion.

We highly encourage in-person attendance! However at the off-chance you’re unable to make it, our Merienda Talk will be live-streamed and kept on our Facebook page via facebook.com/epmuseumofhistory.
