Immerse yourself in the dramatic environments of Texas.

Texas Wild
Temporary Exhibition
The Witte Museum: 100 Years
Explore how the Witte has interpreted and shared the story of Texas through natural history specimens, cultural artifacts, Texas art, and global collections. Discover how the Witte of the ’80s and ’90s transformed collections into traveling experiences that brought Texas stories to communities across the state and beyond. Then see how that work expanded in the 2000s through deep community engagement. Through prototype exhibitions and collaborative planning, new ideas emerged around Texas history, rivers and aquifers, and the concept of Texas Deep Time that defines the museum today.
