Bigfoot in Texas?

A museum exhibit and lecture series. A joint collaborative effort by the University of Texas San Antonio’s Institute of Texan Cultures and the Texas Bigfoot Research Center.

Bigfoot in Texas

April 7–July 30

Do you believe? There are many documented sightings of Bigfoot right here in Texas! You are invited to join us as we explore many theories on the existence of Bigfoot. This exhibit will feature unidentifiable hair as well as foot and body casts of a being that many believe can only be Bigfoot. Guest speakers will also lend their expertise to both sides of the debate.

At the end of your visit, we’ll ask you to vote: do you believe Bigfoot really exists?
