Program Description

Event Details

Explore our city’s relationship with health and disease. Understand what Tuberculosis is, how it was treated, and why thousands of “seekers” came to Colorado Springs searching for a cure. Students will also compare and contrast the experience of people during the tuberculosis era to our experiences today with the COVID-19 pandemic. Please have these items on hand for the program: paper/something to write with, thermometer, drink (milk preferred but anything works!), snack (bread, eggs, beef would be true to the TB diet but anything works!)

This program is for ages 8 and older.

Register here for this live Zoom program and we will send you a link to participate. Please register one person for each family.
