Tex-Mex
Curios, Inc.
A Corpus Christi Landmark

Tex-Mex Curios is a
landmark in the Corpus Christi community. In 1944, Angelita and
Alfonso Orea purchased the business which has succesfully operated
for three generations. Tex-Mex Curios provides Corpus Christi with a
variety of products: folk remedies, natural healing items, religious
gifts, and spiritual products. The Mexican tradition of faith
healing and natural healing is still very much alive in Corpus
Christi thanks to the continuing belief by local people. Tex-Mex
Curios provides the knowledge and goods necessary for continuing
these historically rooted customs. 
Three generations of the family have owned and
operated Tex-Mex Curios in the past half-century. The 2nd generation
included Lucia Orea Chapa, and the late Jose Orea. Current family
members involved in the business are Lucia Orea Chapa, Frank
Fregoso, Jr., Angela Fregoso, and Ana Avaknin
