Many, many years ago, a group of writers christened May as Texas Authors month. It was not until 2019 that some authors decided to re-establish the event. There has been little to no fanfare for the month, and we would look forward to changing this and making Memorial Day weekend a great weekend to support Texas Creatives & Honoring our Hero’s. As we continue to work on creating a physical store and museum for the Texas Authors Institute of History, we have narrowed our search down to a couple of communities, one of which is Seguin, Texas. This historic town is going through a revitalization that can match many other cities as a destination. We want to help with that process.
Seguin is a rich part of Texas history located west of San Antonio, off of I-10 as you head from San Antonio to Houston.
After meeting with city officials, we have decided to help create a Weekend Travel Experience. On May 27 & 28, 2023, we will host the 2nd Lone Star Festival establishing a new tradition for Texas authors, artists, and musicians.
LSBF will be held at the Sequin Town Square where we continue to grow and make this a destination event for Texans.
