The Centennial Museum and Chihuahuan Desert Gardens

Centennial Museum Exhibit: “Authentic Texas: People of the Big Bend”

The Centennial Museum and Chihuahuan Desert Gardens – a part of The University of Texas at El Paso – will present the exhibit “Authentic Texas: People of the Big Bend” Feb. 12 through May 16, 2015. The Museum is open 10:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Tuesday through Saturday and closed for all University holidays.

The exhibit, based on the 2013 award-winning book by the same title (University of Texas Press), features the photography of Bill Wright and stories by Wright and Marcia Hatfield Daudistel.

Wright and Daudistel spent more than two years interviewing and photographing residents of the Big Bend region (one of the most sparsely settled areas in the United States), to see what drew people to these rural areas in the vast Chihuahuan Desert, and more importantly, what kept them there. The two authors discovered “the reasons for making this part of West Texas home are as varied as the people themselves.”

The book is the recipient of the 2014 Southwest Book Award by the Border Regional Library Association.

The exhibit “Authentic Texas” will feature beautiful landscapes of the Big Bend area and stunning portraits and stories of the people who live there. The exhibit consists of photographs and stories included in the book, as well as previously unpublished material. Copies of the book will be available for purchase in the museum’s Gift Shop.

For more information, please call 915-747-5565 or visit museum.utep.edu.
