The museum hosts an annual photography contest each year. The photos then entered in the contest become part of the Photo Contest Exhibit, an exhibit open to the public in the exhibit gallery at the museum's Katy & E. Don Walker, Sr. Education Center.
16th Annual Photo Contest (2025) Update:
Our incredibly talented curator of exhibits Jude Routh will be retiring in mid-September. Unfortunately, we will not have someone in place and trained to be able to take on the photo contest this year. We are saddened because this would be our 16th annual contest, but the contest will be back in 2026 bigger than ever with a special focus on Texas - as next year will be the 190th Anniversary of Texas Independence.
