LEARNING ABOUT THE PAST
At the Museum of the Coastal Bend you have a chance to learn the way you choose.
You can explore on your own, listen to an audio tour, or join a tour led by a museum volunteer.
Some people ask: “Why visit a museum?” The Museum of the Coastal Bend offers the opportunity to expand your knowledge and encourages self-directed learning. You will find the region’s heritage on display in interpretive exhibits, available in hands-on stations, and
recorded as an audio tour.
