With the restoration of the Texas White House underway, the National Park Service is seeking financial support from the Friends to help fund essential elements that will revitalize and improve the full visitor experience. In response to the Park's needs, the Friends created a capital campaign to raise $1.93 million for the Texas White House Complex. When reopened, visitors will find a completely redesigned Hangar Visitor Center with new interactive exhibits, including expanded use of technology. The complex will also include a redesigned and remodeled Klein Shop with a new digital theater and exhibits that reflect the lives of those who worked on the ranch and made it “Our Heart’s Home.”

This project will bring to life the story of the President and Claudia “Lady Bird” Johnson, making their family lives and public legacies, readily accessible to every visitor.

The improvements included in this modernized experience are:

​

• Improved accessibility for visitors throughout the complex.

• Exhibits that highlight the life journeys of LBJ and Lady Bird, showcasing their pivotal moments

• A rotating selection of key artifacts to keep the exhibits fresh and offer a deeper understanding of this period in American history.

• Integration of modern museum technology to bring historic events and achievements to life in vibrant, easily understandable ways.

• Interactive exhibits designed to engage and inspire visitors.

• Redesigned spaces adaptable to different needs, topics, and audiences at various times.

​

If you believe, as we do, that understanding history and the lives of the people who made that history is necessary to advance our culture, our lives, and our nation, please join us in this mission and contribute to our financial goal. Thank you!
