Washington-on-the-Brazos presents Night at the Star of the Republic Museum!

The Star of the Republic Museum at Washington on the Brazos State Historic Site presents Night at the Star of the Republic Museum Saturday, October 22 From 7:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. The lights will go down and the museum’s exhibits will come to life! Explore the museum by flashlight–but BEWARE of what’s around the corner!

“This event will allow visitors to discover the history of Texas in a different light!” said Anne McGaugh, Curator of Education. “The exhibits look very dramatic in the dark. This will be a fun way to learn about Texas history from real live characters.”

Come one, come all, to the museum to see
Spirits of the past talking to you and me!
Bring your flashlights to travel through time
And discover the secrets of life gone by.

Back to the Republic of Texas we’ll go
To meet Stephen F. Austin and a buffalo!
Along the way, if you look just right,
The history might come to life!

Don’t forget to bring a flashlight!

Star of the Republic Museum, administered by Blinn College, is located off Texas Highway 105 between Brenham and Navasota on FM 1155 at Washington-on-the-Brazos State Historic Site.
