As a part of the 'Tejanos of Revolutionary Texas' exhibit, we are offering monthly tours by History Specialist Amelia White which explore the history of Texas from the Spanish settlement through the US Civil War, from the perspective of the Tejanos. These 90-minute tours will start in the special exhibits area and then go through some of the permanent collection galleries of the museum, sharing the stories behind the artifacts.
We hope you will join us for this educational and enlightening experience!
'Tejanos of Revolutionary Texas' tells the story of Juan Seguin, Jose Antonio Navarro and other Texans of Mexican descent during Texas’ most volatile era. This interactive exhibit explores why these families came to Texas and how the frontier experience shaped Tejano involvement in the Mexican Wars of Independence and the Texas Revolution.
The exhibit concludes by examining how Tejanos were treated after independence and American statehood, and how Tejano communities survived and thrived in the face of adversity and racism.
We're offering special guided tours through the 'Tejanos Of Revolutionary Texas' exhibition. Book your tour today at https://thebryanmuseum.org/tejanos-of-revolutionary-texas/
