Our new West Texas Heritage Center, located at 201 East San Antonio Avenue in downtown El Paso, will officially open on Thursday, May 29, 2025 with a ribbon cutting ceremony at noon! This event is free and open to the public and media. Made possible in part by a grant from El Paso County, the Center will showcase rotating exhibits highlighting the unique cultural heritage of El Paso and the greater West Texas region. We plan to host two to three exhibits per year at the Center. The inaugural exhibit, Adobe at the Pass: Documenting the Mission Valley in 1936, is currently on display through August 30th. Current hours of operation are Tuesdays through Saturdays, 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. The Center will also host public programs, including hands-on preservation workshops, lectures, and community events designed to educate and empower West Texans to safeguard their historic places. Stay tuned for more to come! (fb)
