The Starr family moved to Texas during the formative years of the Republic of Texas and its entry into the United States. Though they haven't made the history books, their efforts to survey, map, and sell land throughout the state made them instrumental in its growth, as they helped bring railroads and new settlers to Texas. They made their home in Marshall following the Civil War to expand and solidify their land agency business. The historic site interprets four generations of Starrs and curates the collections that were left in the big house, Maplecroft, as well as caring for the sites' historic buildings.
As we gather for the Oregon Museums Association 2024 Annual Conference in Coos Bay, the conference theme “Ebb & Flow” acknowledges the nearby coastline while providing a metaphor to reflect on the work of Oregon’s museums today
It can feel like the sands are shifting as museums face challenges and opportunities like changing patterns of visitorship, evolving technologies, revised funding strategies, and peoples’ desire for community.
The 2024 conference will explore contemporary issues facing museums, so that together we can take the helm to identify solutions and successfully steer our work forward
Whether you are an emerging professional just getting your feet wet, in the mid-career flow, or an established leader navigating the depths of museum work, we invite you to join us at The Mill Casino Hotel in Coos Bay, September 8-10, 2024.
