  • D W★★★★★5 months ago

    There are very nice displays with some really interesting pieces. It's not that big, but taking time to read about the items and watch the videos makes it worth the admission price.

  • Andrea K★★★★★2 years ago

    Free exhibit about Texan Culture and early immigration influences. The building was part of the 1968 World Faire. We came on a Friday at noon and the place was nearly empty. We spent about 90 minutes looking through the exhibits. This can easily be combined with a visit to the Tower of the Americas. They welcome a donation to keep the exhibits open and help with restoration processes. Bathrooms on the premise. Wheelchair accessible.

  • N and C Farrell★★★★★2 years ago

    It was a good way to spend part of a Sunday afternoon to learn about the rich culture and history of the people of Texas. There are so many exhibits ranging from Tejano, to Irish, to Chinese, to Lebanese and so many more. And that is where the challenge is. Having so many walls of personal stories and information to read with a strange proportion of artifacts/exhibits to reading makes it tough for someone with a short attention span. And some exhibits were undergoing renovation. Had high hopes as a Smithsonian affiliate but was disappointed as there were typos, flickering lights and many of the video touch screens were not working. But still learned a lot and enjoyed our time there.

  • Mackenly Jones★★★★★2 months ago

    Interesting artifacts and content about Texas culture. Air conditioned with bathrooms.

  • Christina Mantas★★★★★2 years ago

    Historical Museum Focusing on Texas Immigration In the shadow of the "Tower of the Americas." The Institute houses artifacts, traditional dress, and artwork from every ethnic group that has immigrated to Texas. There used to be a Free cultural event one Sunday a month, highlighting a different ethnicity: It included traditional dance, crafts, music, and food samplings. It was so much fun! Hopefully, they'll bring it back. 🙏
