Red River Center for Regional History and Culture

Red River Center for Regional History and Culture

The Red River Center for Regional History and Culture at Texas A&M University-Texarkana supports the collection, preservation, exchange, and dissemination of locally and regionally significant materials relating to history and culture in the Red River area, including southeast Oklahoma, northeast Texas, southwest Arkansas, and northwest Louisiana. One of the key missions of the center is to find ways to deploy history – to make it useful and inspirational – to improve our region by bringing to life its cultural heritage through dynamic exhibits, educational programming, internships, and research. 

We understand our goals and agendas as extensions of the Texas A&M University system’s Land Grant mandate, in order to promote a shared understanding of our common human experience that informs our collaborative pursuit of solutions to issues that affect our communities. 

The Red River Center for Regional History and Culture offers an interdisciplinary humanities perspective to building our region, supporting our economic and social welfare, and improving our quality of life. Through the study of history and culture, the Center will help residents of the Red River region discover their passions, build their self-esteems, and realize that the stereotypes and news stories are wrong, and that we have the strength within us to create change.
