Texas Festivals: Creating Community Through Celebration

Everything, for the most part, is bigger in Texas – and that includes the community celebrations. Kicking off this Saturday, April 25, and running until late September is the Bob Bullock Museum’s tribute to the festivals of the Lone Star State. Showcasing 27 Texan fests, the exhibition’s three sections explores these festive affairs through iconic artifacts, a short documentary, and several interactive elements, from make-your-own gown trains to Mad Libs-style festival name making, and even a food truck-themed play area. With summer nipping at our spring heels, here’s a great way to soak in all the festival fun within the Bullock’s pleasant air-conditioning. – James Scott
