Healing: A Cultural Exploration February 20, 2007

An exploration of ritual objects used practically and symbolically, across all cultures, in the process of healing. The exhibit seeks to demonstrate the thread of universal beliefs related to healing that connects people across all cultures, ethnicities, and nationalities. On display will be historical objects used in medicinal rituals, as well as works by contemporary artists that reflect a personal experience of healing. The exhibition will be a multi-sensory experience that highlights the community and individual relationships to health and healing.
