Tippin’ its hat and celebrating the legacy of the cowboy, cowgirl, and vaquero, the Briscoe presents its annual National Day of the Cowboy celebration!

The free community event, which includes free admission to the museum, features indoor and outdoor activities across the museum’s River Walk campus for cowpokes of all ages to enjoy and explore the West.

This year’s celebration will shine a spotlight on the enduring legacy of the vaquero and the vital role vaqueros played in shaping the American West. From ranching and cattle drives to the art of roping, branding and horsemanship, vaqueros helped lay the foundation for today’s cowboy traditions and culture.

Registration in advance is highly recommended.
