Current Exhibit

Texans One and All

A lot of people don't picture Texas when they think about a melting pot, but like the commercial says, Texas is like a whole other country! You can explore the diverse heritage of the Lone Star State by reading stories of hundreds of Texas's earliest cultural contributors in this entertaining, interactive exhibit.

Texans One and All showcases more than twenty of the original cultural groups who settled in Texas. Enjoy the sounds of a German oompah band. Learn Wendish wedding customs. Read the story of the Lebanese pack peddler. Write Chinese numbers. Hear the stories of Japanese American intern camp detainees. See the Czech polka. Hear the blowing of the Jewish shofar. Read the stories of black Texans including baseball player Frank Robinson and Pearl Harbor hero Doris Miller. See how early Swedish Texans lived. Walk through today's Tejano story. Learn what Danish Texan sculpted Mount Rushmore.

Discover Texas multiculturalism, now featured in Texans One and All at UTSA's Institute of Texan Cultures!
