The Bullock Museum completed a five-year project in December to make all 16,000 years of Texas history encapsulated within its walls available to visitors in both English and Spanish.
The Bob Bullock Texas State History Museum partnered with professional translators to ensure its exhibits were fully accessible to Spanish and English speakers alike.
"Since our founding by the Texas Legislature, the Museum's mandate has been focused on the educational benefits of making the story of Texas as accessible as possible," said Margaret Koch, director of the Bullock Museum."Creating bilingual experiences has been a key element in strengthening and respecting the positive and thoughtful interactions our Spanish-speaking visitors are able to have with their families during their visits.
To make exhibits more relatable to a broader audience, historical narratives were reevaluated to incorporate more diverse perspectives.
