Description

Celebrate Black History Month at Big Thicket!

African American experiences are vital to Big Thicket’s story. How did emancipated people provide for themselves after freedom? How did they interact with a society that wasn’t built for them?

Find out and hear uncovered stories about African Americans in Big Thicket during a special 1-hour presentation inside the visitor center theater.

ASL interpreters available upon request.
