From the Director

As many of you know, Humanities Texas is in the midst of exciting changes. We have a new website and new headquarters in a historic building in downtown Austin.

I am also pleased to introduce our e-newsletter, which will provide you, our statewide partners, with information about programs and opportunities at Humanities Texas.

I look forward to your continued involvement in all of the initiatives at Humanities Texas. And I encourage you to visit Humanities Texas soon: online, and in Austin at the Byrne-Reed House.
