The Grace Museum
102 Cypress Street Abilene, TX 79601
In continuation with the celebration of the opening of Abilene Heritage Square, The Grace will open an exhibition that highlights clothing and ephemera from Abilene area junior high and high schools, colleges, and universities. The school letter jacket, a cheerleading uniform, the football helmet, and the game ball are just a few artifacts that can really define a student in their most developmental years. They are a sense of pride and accomplishment. The Grace will exhibit many of these items from the permanent collection and objects on loan from area schools and universities.
