With just under two weeks until the fourth annual Blast from the Past Nacogdoches History Fair, the Nacogdoches Historic Sites Department is putting the last minute touches on this family fun event!
Pre-1840s living historians will also be present throughout the day to give visitors a taste of life in the early 1800s and show how oxen were used on a typical farm. The Stone Fort Museum will also be demonstrating the spinning, weaving and dying demonstration, where everyone can dye their own bookmark to take home. This event will take place on October 13th from 9AM to 2PM at Festival Park. This is a free event that provides an excellent way for the whole community to learn about Nacogdoches history in hands on way.
