Program Description

Event Details

The history of medicine is filled with stories of strange tonics, outlandish remedies, and curious “cures.” Toads, snails, mashed potatoes, mandrake, and bear grease were commonly prescribed. While some of these ingredients sound crazy, there’s logic behind many of them! Ehris Urban and Velya Jancz-Urban will guide you through this funny and factual exploration of colonial “quackery”.
