SUMMARY:DPL Exhibit: The Mexican American Museum of Texas presents "Spanish Texas during the American Revolution: Life and Legacy\, 1775 – 1783"
DESCRIPTION:In-person Only \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDiscover a lesser-known story of the American Revolution at Spanish Texas during the American Revolution: Life and Legacy\, 1775 – 1783\,” a compelling new exhibit on the 8th floor of the Dallas Public Library. Designed and produced by The Mexican American Museum of Texas\, this display highlights how Tejanos and Spanish settlers contributed to the American Revolution while navigating the challenges of daily life on the Texas frontier. \n\n\n\nThrough bilingual panels\, descendant collaboration and interactive replicas\, visitors will gain an authentic look at\, among many other things\, the food\, medicine\, work\, leisure\, and resilience of Tejano communities in a region dominated by Native peoples. Significantly\, this exhibit expands the narrative of the American Revolution beyond the thirteen colonies\, ensuring that the contributions of Texas Hispanos are properly recognized. \n\n\n\n\nMORE INFO

SUMMARY:DPL: Liberty and Lace Ball: A Celebration of Independence
