Overview
Mission
The goal of the organization is to suppport the Museum's efforts to preserve and exhibit the multi-cultural heritage of the Coastal Bend area for both the education and enjoyment of the public.
What it reported doing in 2024
The Museum provides exhibits relating to the Coastal Bend region that can be viewed with or without the use of an audio "tour assistant". There are tours for student and other groups and specific activities are planned for these groups. Also, on occasion, individuals dressed appropriately for the period serve as docents and lecturers.
Operating model
- Revenue model
- Earned-program. 79% of the money available for current operations came from fees and other program revenue.

The verdict
SUPPORTED - The filed numbers largely add up and a large share of available resources goes toward mission work. Program spending has declined or grown slowly and revenue has declined or grown slowly.
