Spring Break on the Bluff: Prepare for the Journey

Immigrant Roots, American Branches...

Join us on the Bluff from March 7-15 for nine days of unique Spring Break activities! Each day features a different program from 10am-2pm inspired by the 19th-century immigrant's journey to Texas.

Step into the shoes of an early settler coming to Texas and practice the skills needed to succeed in your new life. 

On Saturday, March 7th, discover how immigrants prepared for the long journey to Texas. How did they choose where to settle? What items did they need to bring? Practice packing your trunk and explore early Texas guide books.

Be sure to pick up a Spring Break Passport booklet for your journey. Earn stamps for attending programs for a chance to win prizes!

This event is presented as part of Texas America250, commemorating the 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence.
