โœจ๐Ÿ”ฅ We had a SPARK of something special in Snyder last week! ๐Ÿ”ฅโœจ

We were honored to host a special visit from the Texas Historical Commission and the Texas Plains Trail Region, who led an incredible workshop on Visitor Experiences right here in Snyder.

We were thrilled to welcome around 40 attendees from across our region to Martha Annโ€™s, including representatives from amazing partner organizations like:
โญ The National WASP WWII Museum in Sweetwater
โญ The Bush Family Home Museum in Midland
โญ Frontier Texas! in Abilene
โ€ฆand several more!

These groups are all part of our regional partnerships as we prepare for the Smithsonian Museum on Main Street: Spark! Places of Innovation exhibit coming to Snyder for six weeks beginning October 2nd! ๐ŸŽ‰

We are beyond excited for this opportunity to showcase innovation, history, and communityโ€”and to bring a full lineup of fun events to Snyder!

A carhop delivers a meal to a hungry patron at Frady Brothers restaurant in Snyder, Texas 1949. Snyder was an oil boomtown at the time. I wonder if they had tater tots.

Invention can happen anywhere and itโ€™s happening right now in small towns across America. Rural Americans are creating new products, taking risks, meeting challenges together, and seizing upon exciting opportunities that change local life and sometimes reach far beyond.
"Spark! Places of Innovation," an exhibition from the Smithsonianโ€™s Museum on Main Street, highlights innovation in rural America from the perspective of the people who lived it! Their words, images, and experiences gathered through an ambitious crowdsourcing initiative are the heartbeat of this exhibition. Technological, social, cultural, artistic, or a combination of all of theseโ€”every innovation is as unique as each community.

You can see the exhibition starting October 3, 2026 at Ritz Community Theatre in Snyder, TX.
