The challenges facing local news organizations are very real. That's why reader support matters more than ever. If you believe independent journalism matters, make a contribution today and help us reach our summer fundraising goal of $15,000 by August 9.
Hemophobes, beware! The magic of Gunther von Hagen’s “Body Worlds” returns to the Arizona Science Center.
The controversial exhibit returns for its second time as “Body Worlds & The Brain.” Using a technique called Plastination — which may or may not be a snooty word for human taxidermy — actual deceased human bodies are preserved, sans skin, for the viewing pleasure of the living. Despite some ethical objections to the displaying of human remains, proponents of the exhibit are dead serious about the educational benefits to be had by visitors of all ages.
