To Texas History Enthusiasts,
Annual Meeting 2026–March 4-7 in Irving, TX–is less than three weeks away! Here at the TSHA office we are busy making preparations. Whether it’s packing books, printing name-tags, or helping with hotel reservations, we’re here to make sure that this year’s conference is the most engaging and seamless experience to date.
Don’t forget: registration is just $99 and the deadline to register online this year is February 25. Register now!
The deadline to book in our hotel block at the Westin Dallas Fort Worth Airport has been extended to Thursday, February 19. Rooms are booking fast so make sure to get yours today!
This will be the most expansive Annual Meeting we’ve hosted in our 130 years. Here are a few programs that we are featuring:
- A screening of The Stones are Speaking
- Panels featuring our own Dr. Rick McCaslin, current State Historian of Texas
- Book Lovers’ and Texana Collectors’ Breakfast
- Casino Night w/ The Cory Cross Band
- Over 30 panels touching on nearly all of Texas’s vast history
Annual Meeting is a unique opportunity to meet and network with Texas history experts, scholars, industry and business leaders, and fellow history buffs. We can confidently say that there is no event comparable to TSHA’s Annual Meeting–you’ll walk away with new understandings, new connections, and a renewed appreciation for all things Texas history.
We’ve attached a flyer and our program that we hope you’ll share with friends, family, and colleagues. It’s perfect for a department listserv or your social media.
We hope to see you there!
Sincerely,
Texas State Historical Association (TSHA)
