Summer History

Summer History

"EXPLORING COMMUNITY BUILDERS"

Tuesdays and Saturdays in July at the Fort Bend Museum explore how we build our communities in more ways than design and architecture!  Participate in engineering challenges, imaginative structure building, design-themed makerspaces, interactive displays and learn from community businesses, organizations, and leaders who are "building" Fort Bend County.
Questions? Call the Museum at 281-342-6478 or email Erika Isham here.
Tickets
Where:  
Fort Bend Museum
410 S. Fifth Street, Richmond, Tx


For ages 5-12, but fun for the whole family! Bring your lunch to enjoy at our picnic tables or on our lawn after the program.
