See our Board members and Black History Tours on CW39 when Mister McKinney and Maggie Flecknoe celebrate 100 years of Jack Yates High School on Friday, February 13, 10:00 AM
Made Possible By: The Heritage Society’s exhibits, tours, events, and programs are funded in part by a grant from the City of Houston through Houston Arts Alliance. Funding for these grants has been provided by Humanities Texas and the National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH) as part of the federal ARP Act. Some of the exhibits and programs are also sponsored by the Summerlee Foundation and the Bybee Foundation.
On Thursday, October 9, 6:30 p.m., grab a pint, pull up a stool, and join us for an evening where Houston’s oil-pioneering past meets the perfect craft brew. Professor Jonathan Konchak will guide you through the epic odyssey of the Staiti House, from its turn-of-the-century familial roots to its preservation at The Heritage Society. Expect riveting stories of hurricane repairs, architectural flair, and horticultural passion, all served with a side of local lore. Join us at the New Magnolia Brewing Co. at 1616 Bevis Street for our free, lecture series on the second Thursday of the month.
The Heritage Society (THS) is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization whose mission is to tell the stories of the diverse history of Houston and Texas through collections, exhibits, educational programs, film, video, and other content.
