Southeast Texans are invited to mark their calendars for the Sam Houston Center’s Holiday Celebration, scheduled for Friday, Dec. 15 and Saturday, Dec. 16. The Center will remain open after its normal operating hours for a very special, festive evening event from 5:00 – 8:00 p.m. on both days. More info: www.tsl.texas.gov/SHCholiday23.

All are invited for free holiday activities for all ages, including sweet treats and hot cocoa, caroling, glittering decorations and multiple opportunities to take your own holiday photographs at the Jean and Price Daniel Home on the Center’s campus, modeled on the Governor’s Mansion in Austin—including photos with Santa! Food donations for the food drive will be accepted during both evenings.

The Sam Houston Regional Library and Research Center is a component of the Texas State Library and Archives Commission and serves as the official regional historical resource depository for the 10 Southeast Texas counties of Chambers, Hardin, Jasper, Jefferson, Liberty, Newton, Orange, Polk, San Jacinto and Tyler. The Center's primary mission is to collect, preserve and provide access to historically significant state and local government records and publications of the designated region and secondarily to serve as a library of Texana and genealogical resources.
