X-WR-CALDESC:Members of the THF Board will present the Fall 2022 grant to R
 ockport Cultural Arts District at the Rockport Railroad Depot. RCAD won fu
 nds to support their ongoing project to restore the historic former San An
 tonio and Aransas Pass Railroad Depot\, now a museum and hub for heritage 
 tourism in the heart of Rockport’s Cultural Arts District. \n\nThe San Ant
 onio and Aransas Pass Railroad Depot served as Rockport's stop on the rail
  line between San Antonio and Corpus Christi\, first as a freight line and
  eventually including passenger service. Its introduction heralded in a ne
 w era of modernity and economic growth to the coastal town during the rout
 e's operation from the late 1800s through the 1940s\, forever altering its
  trajectory. From the implementation of the rail stop in 1888 and the year
  1890\, Rockport’s population doubled as the town quickly became a destina
 tion for tourism and industry. \n\nSeated at the center of the Rockport Cu
 ltural Arts District\, the Depot now operates as a museum specializing in 
 the region's railroad history and heritage\, as well as a space for commun
 ity events. Like many historic structures on the gulf coast\, the Depot wa
 s hit hard by Hurricane Harvey in 2017\, sustaining extensive damage that 
 has taken years to repair. This grant from the Texas Historical Foundation
  will be implemented in the final phase of restoring the Depot\, with much
  of the work protecting the space from harsh coastal environments and futu
 re storms. \n
