Our History, Our Diversity

The Fort Bend History Museum offers a unique monthly speaker series titled “Our History, Our Diversity,” which began in March 2022. Held in our revitalized museum gallery and event space, these lectures are designed to elevate, celebrate, and illuminate the diverse stories and individuals of Fort Bend County. Through engaging talks and interactive workshops, attendees can deepen their understanding of our local heritage and connect with the vibrant community that shapes our history. Join us for these enriching experiences that contribute to preserving and sharing the cultural richness of our area.

Immerse yourself in the spirit of Christmas this December with the Fort Bend Museum during the first weekend of the month as the Fort Bend Museum Docents present their annual Candlelight Tours! The historic Moore House will be elaborately decorated for Christmas, bathed in the warm glow of candles with some of the oldest and most popular fairy tales brought to life room by room. Tickets can be purchased at the door! Additionally, don’t miss the opportunity to see the Fort Bend Christian Academy’s annual art exhibit reception and opening on December 5th. Wonderfully crafted works by students will be displayed throughout the gallery. If you find yourself in Richmond for the Community Christmas Walk or Miracle on Morton Street, stop on by the Museum to celebrate these lovely holiday traditions with us!
