Texas Trades


*The event has already taken place on this date: Sat, 10/19/2024
Come experience the essential skills required for survival on the Texas frontier during the early 19th century at the Alamo's upcoming living history event. Texas Trades will transport visitors back in time to witness how the early Texans used trades such as blacksmithing, weaving, and tailoring. Although these skills may seem old-fashioned today, they were once vital. The event will take place from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. throughout the Alamo grounds. It is free for all to attend. Visitors of all ages will have the opportunity to learn about trades prevalent in early 1800s Texas, including woodworking, textiles, blacksmithing, sewing, and weaving. The Alamo's Living History team, donning 19th-century attire and using 19th-century tools, will provide visitors with a hands-on experience of these trades.
