"Don't make me repeat myself" - HistoryThe quote above always makes us smile. Whether for better or worse, we all know history lends itself to repetition, and we at the Fort Bend History Association like to recall this quote as we reflect on our role in both sharing and making history.
Formed in 1967, the Fort Bend History Association aims to deliver on this mission - to contribute to a positive path forward - through preserved historic structures such as the 1883 Moore Home, 1855 Long-Smith Cottage, and Decker Park, alongside our recently renovated Fort Bend Museum, DeWalt Heritage Center and the Fort Bend Archeological Society. OUR MISSION The Fort Bend History Association Annual Fund enables the Museum to showcase exciting exhibitions and host engaging educational programs.
