We are delighted to announce Texas Archive of the Moving Image (TAMI) as the first-ever recipient of Texas Historical Foundation’s newly launched Annual Grants program.

THF President & CEO David Preziosi received the Award for Excellence in the Promotion of Architecture through the Media in Honor of John G. Flowers from the Texas Society of Architects.

Eight nonprofits were approved for THF grant funding at our Summer 2024 board meeting. The grants support projects that are designed to preserve Texas history and culture, some at a statewide level and others on a more focused, local level.

The Grace Museum, Abilene, will apply their grant towards creating immersive visitor experiences in their exhibit “Full Steam Ahead: The Texas and Pacific Railway."

Documentary Arts, Inc. will use its grant for an album of song covers showcasing the work of legendary Deep Ellum musicians, including blues pioneers Blind Lemon Jefferson and Blind Willie Johnson.

Sugarloaf Pictures in partnership with Austin Film Society was awarded funding for the full-length documentary film, "Tonkawa: They All Stay Together."

Caddo Indian pottery is a significant aspect of the cultural heritage of the Caddo Nation, a Native American tribe that originally lived in areas that are now parts of Texas, Louisiana, Arkansas, and Oklahoma. THF Board Member Lane Transou writes about their pottery, renowned for its intricate designs and functional artistry, and how it evolved significantly over the centuries to reflect social changes, tribal economic status, and tribal autonomy.
