On March 2, 1836, Texas formally declared its independence from Mexico with the signing of the Texas Declaration of Independence at Washington-on-the-Brazos.
To commemorate the signing of the Texas Declaration of Independence, join us for a spirited celebration of Texas history at the “A Toast to Texas to Texas Family Festival” on March 1 at Washington-on-the-Brazos State Historic Site.
Highlights include period performances, historical reenactments, the 2nd Annual Republic of Texas Chili Cook-off, and cannon and musket firings. Don’t miss this opportunity to step back in time and experience the rich heritage of the Lone Star State!
