"Enduring Women", a photography and oral history exhibit at the Bullock Texas State History Museum, features contemporary Texas women who work the land as ranchers, farmers, and cowgirls. Hear their stories in their own words and witness the daily lives of these remarkable Texas women who have endured -- sometimes for generations -- in their stewardship of the land. Presented by the Bullock Museum and St. Edward's University, "Enduring Women" highlights undergraduate creative research in the fields of oral history, art history, and photography. Held in conjunction with the Museum's special exhibition, "Women Shaping Texas in the 20th Century", the exhibit is on view through May 19, 2013.
