The exhibition, which explores the ways American Indian images, names, and stories have been part of the nation’s identity since before the country began, features photographs, hands-on interactives, objects, and videos that invite visitors to explore this history and representation of Native Americans.

● WHEN: Saturday, Feb. 21, at 9:30 am (recurring monthly every third Saturday)
● WHERE: Potter-Randall County Medical Society -- 1721 Hagy Blvd, Amarillo (meet at the medical society and then we’ll walk to Medi Park)
● WHO: Dr. Gerald, medical society staff members, and any community members interested in participating
● WHY: Walking is one of the simplest, best things people can do to live a long, high-quality life. WWAD makes it easy by providing the time, place, motivation (a brief health information talk), and fellow participants for a fun walking experience.
TheWalk with a Doc concept is simple: Physicians organize walks in their communities and invite their patients, their patients’ families, and community members to join them. Walkers will enjoy a refreshing and invigorating walk with Dr. Gerald and other health care professionals, who will provide support to participants and answer questions during the walk.Walk with a Doc Texas is overseen by a national nonprofit organization to get people active and healthy, and is backed by the Texas Medical Association (TMA) in Texas.
This is a FREE program, and preregistration is not required. Information about future walks will be announced on this chapter’s Walk with a Doc website.
Have fun creating with LEGOs!
