Muchos Méxicos explored Mexico’s rich history as a site of human innovation, creativity and cultural diversity. Featuring Mexican objects from the collections of the Peabody Museum, this bilingual exhibit told the story of Mexico as a multicultural and geographic crossroads—one where the exchange of resources, products, and ideas among Indigenous peoples throughout the Americas before the Spanish invasion, and then with cultures around the globe—have all created a vibrant nation.
