Log Cabin Village
Fort Worth, Texas

History, Historic House, Specialized

In the 1950s, nineteenth century log structures were quickly vanishing from the North Texas landscape. In order to preserve them and the history of pioneer settlement in North Texas, a group of residents formed the Pioneer Texas Heritage Committee. This committee selected and acquired six log structures of varying architectural styles with the vision of creating a "log cabin village." With the help of Fort Worth's Parks Department, a wooded spot near the Trinity River in Forest Park was selected as the site for this village. However, after all the cabins were moved there, the committee encountered many problems. There was not enough money or support to restore and furnish the structures. Many council members and residents even opposed the project.

2025 American Alliance of Museums (AAM) ANNUAL MEETING & MUSEUMEXPO

Los Angeles Convention Center

Los Angeles, California

AAM 2025 will focus on the theme, Museums & Trust.

Museums have long inspired high levels of public trust, surpassing news outlets, government organizations, researchers and scientists, corporations, and social media platforms. This consistent finding underscores our institutions’ unique position in society as stewards of knowledge, culture, science, and history—areas where credibility and reliability are paramount

In an era marked by mistrust and misinformation, museums have a rare ability to counterbalance the proliferation of false narratives and polarized perspectives. Using our trusted position, we can cultivate a more healthy, empathetic, and informed society.

But to do so, we must maintain our credibility proactively, embracing thoughtful, transparent, and collaborative practices that will defend against influences like bias, resource challenges, abuse of power, and social injustice

An Incredible MuseumExpo

AAM is again partnering this year with the Museum Store Association to host an incredible combined expo hall. Find the most innovative services, products, and solutions in the museum field. With 350 exhibitors, you are bound to find the right partner for your museum’s current challenges and opportunities.
