Smithsonian Exhibit in Brenham
The Smithsonian is still in Brenham, but not for much longer! From now until January 19, 2025, you can experience “Crossroads: Change in Rural America,” a traveling exhibit from the Smithsonian as part of the Museum on Main Street (MoMS) program. Brenham is proud to be one of just seven Texas towns hosting this incredible exhibition.
In addition to the Smithsonian display, local partners across Washington County are offering a variety of educational programs, cultural activities, and exhibits, including the local Century of the Simon exhibit next door, which highlights 100 years of the Simon Theatre’s impact on Brenham.
