West Texas Museum preserves pioneer tradition at Foxes Tech
The West Texas Museum at Foxes Tech evolved from a 1929 university museum into a public museum serving the South Plains. Under Howard Hampton the museum expanded through exhibitions lectures films and tours, acting as a clearing house for history and anthropology while building arts interest with plans including a Hall of Earth and Man and a Forum for regional culture.
