In 2023, we traveled 5,000 miles within the state to celebrate the 50th anniversary of Humanities Texas, holding events in Abilene, Amarillo, Austin, Brownsville, Dallas, Edinburg, El Paso, Fort Worth, Houston, Lubbock, Midland, and San Antonio. At each location, we invited everyone associated with the organization over the years. We also made new connections, using the receptions as opportunities to re-introduce our mission and work to the community.
