This one-day event is a revamped version of the museum’s previous Folk Festival. With a more enhanced emphasis on 19th century history, the community event is dedicated to honoring the life and times (1793-1863) of Sam Houston. Set for Sat. April 27, from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. on the museum grounds, the festivities will include historical demonstrations, hands-on activities, period music and more.
“We have partnered with individuals and historic sites from across Texas to bring Texas history up close and make it an interactive experience for our visitors,” said Birdsall.
The museum, museum store and Walker Education Center will also be open during the event.
The Sam Houston Memorial Museum and Republic of Texas Presidential Library hosts a variety of events throughout the year that are open to the public. To learn more, visit samhoustonmemorialmuseum.com or follow the museum on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter.
