Boonville Days Heritage Fair
Join the Brazos Valley Museum of Natural History for the 3rd annual BOONVILLE DAYS HERITAGE FAIR! Bring the entire family to enjoy this celebration of our heritage from 10 am to 5 pm. Activities will take place both inside the Museum and on the Brazos Center grounds.
Learn about Brazos County’s pioneer history: visit with characters in period costume, observe demonstrations of frontier skills and trades, see an authentic stagecoach, hear from a cowboy-poet, and much more. Our activity area will keep children busy learning to make pinch pots and other period crafts.
Visitors can also browse through the Museum’s exhibition gallery, exploring the Frithiof fossil display and the current traveling exhibit, CARNAVAL! To learn more about this and other Museum events, activities and exhibitions call 979/776-2195.
Admission to this event and the Museum’s permanent galleries is $5 for adults, $4 for children 4-17, students, and seniors. Children 3 and under are free. The Museum, located in the Brazos Center on Briarcrest Drive, is open to the public Monday through Saturday from 10 am to 5 pm.
