The free seminars will bring you interesting and informative facts on the area history, from local radio, to food and the old Negro Leagues of the area.

On July 7, famous radio DJ Jim Pruette of KLOL 101, will be speaking on some of the “juicy history”. On July 14, French Bastille Day, the class will discuss the history of French people in Texas and the Cajun people of Louisiana. The next week, July 21, will include lectures from actual players in the old Negro Baseball leagues and how Texas participated. The appetite indulging finale on July 28 will be all about the great foods of Argentina, and will be focused on the Empanada.

You won’t want to miss this total immersion of the senses while learning about the vital role of the French on our great states culture, so come enjoy free education from the culturally diverse folks who lived it!
