What a wonderful evening at the grand opening of “Spanish Texas During the American Revolution: Life and Legacy, 1775–1783” at The Heritage Society at Sam Houston Park! 🇪🇸✨

It was so much fun learning more about the history, heritage, and Spanish influence that helped shape Texas. We especially enjoyed experiencing the exhibit and hearing from such knowledgeable speakers. A beautiful evening celebrating history and culture right here in Houston! ❤️
