The exhibit will also showcase authentic artifacts from throughout Bolivia, Peru, Ecuador, and Colombia.
Artifacts on display will include a traditional festival outfit used in Bolivia’s Dance of the Devils (La Diablada), which is a prominent part of the Carnaval de Oruro, hand woven tapestries and musical instruments seen throughout the Andean region, antique brass stirrup boot covers from Colombia, and more.
