Group Visits

The Galveston and Texas History Center welcomes students, organizations, and other groups for tours and research visits. Please call the Special Collections Manager, Lauren Martino, at 409-763-8854 x117 to make arrangements.

Due to the staff time involved in planning and hosting a group visit, please call at least three weeks in advance. Staff will make every effort to accommodate your group and provide an engaging research experience. The History Center contains a wealth of primary and secondary source materials on almost any Galveston or early Texas history topic.

Examples of group visits:

• Slavery in early Texas
• Black Galveston history
• Genealogy and Galveston ancestors
• 1900 Storm
• Highlights from the archives
