The 85th Texas Legislature passed HB2079, which will transition the State’s music history community into the State’s music heritage tourism industry via the Texas Music History Trail™ (Heritage Trail Program). We’ll need another session to get it funded, structure interagency participation and formulate public/private partnership objectives. This Heritage Trails initiative creates new milestones for local communities, while establishing a new cornerstone for heritage tourism programming the millennial generations will enjoy for centuries to come.
