🎉 Big news for Terrell’s history!

We are thrilled to share incredible news about the Restore the Legacy: The Carnegie Library Building Project!

Thanks to the generosity of supporters and partners, the West Elevation project is now fully funded—and that’s not all…

🎉 We have officially been awarded the Texas Historical Commission’s Texas Preservation Trust Fund Grant for the restoration of the historic front windows of the 1904 Carnegie Library building!

This award is highly competitive, with only 11 projects receiving funding statewide this year. The THC shared that 48 organizations applied, 22 advanced, and only 11 were selected for funding—making this achievement a true testament to the importance of preserving our Carnegie Library building.

This grant supports a major portion of Phase One of our restoration efforts, and we are so grateful for this investment in Terrell’s history.

As we celebrate this milestone, we’re continuing to raise funds for the next phases of restoration. If you’d like to support this historic project, you can donate here:

Thank you to everyone who has believed in this mission. The Terrell Heritage Museum—and our city’s heritage—is stronger because of you. 💛📚🏛️
