San Antonio features many museums about Texas's unique history. But few know how to throw a party quite like the Institute of Texan Cultures! A party at a museum of history? Well, not exactly: each June, the museum hosts a large festival celebrating various elements of the state's diverse array of cultures. It's a fun opportunity to encounter some of the best things about Texas up close.
During the rest of the year, the Institute serves as a local museum featuring many historically significant treasures in its permanent collection. Bring the entire family for an interesting, fun, and educational look at the state's history.
Check the Institute of Texan Cultures's website for a schedule of rotating and traveling exhibits along with information on museum hours.
