This will be a superbly illustrated talk by anthropologist León García Lam and photographer Pavel Hroch on the life and landscape of the Purépecha people of Michoacán.
Discover their history, culture, language and extensive artistic traditions. Learn about their lively festivals replete with masks and colourful costumes.
In addition, the presenters will review the tragic effects on these communities from illegal logging during recent decades.
