Join Cleo Freauf on this walkthough of the World Beat Gallery exhibit, "Purépecha de San Jeronimo" from 2016.

The Purépechas are an indigenous people from the northwest region of Michoacán in Mexico. They are traditionally known for their fine weaving and pottery. They are also famous for holding out against the Aztecs, and were never been adsorbed into their monumental Pre-Hispanic empire. Today, there are an estimated 20,000 Purépecha that call Marion county home.

We hope you enjoy this short and informative presentation and would like to thank CCTV Salem for this footage.
