Event Details

Dig into quack medicines and health and wellness fads of yesteryear with Ellen Paulin from the Tri-Cities Historical Society. We will talk about the evolution of medicines, snake oils and elixirs, contraptions that were 'guaranteed' to make you healthy, and so much more! There will be artifacts from the Museum's collection that have not previously been on display. We hope you'll join us!
