Brown Bag Lunches

The Western Heritage Museum Complex is a regional Museum that covers Southeastern New Mexico and West Texas. What are some of the major events that shaped this region? Join us as Calvin Smith discusses 10 significant parts of the region's history. Each brown bag talk will cover a different topic.

Calvin Smith, Executive Director of the Western Heritage Museum Complex and Lea County Cowboy Hall of Fame will be presenting a series of Brown Bag Lunch talks. “The series,” states Smith, “will focus on ten events in Southeastern New Mexico during the prehistoric and historic periods that have shaped this ‘place’ we call home.” The lunches will start at 11:30 am at the Western Heritage Museum and the public is welcome to attend. Don't forget your lunch and we hope to see you there!
