BE A PART OF OUR TEXAS MUSIC HISTORY!

For the past several years, the Texas Musicians Museum celebrated our rich musical heritage in Hillsboro, Texas. We have now made a move to a larger and more prestgious location in downtown Waxahachie at the Rogers Hotel. Today the museum is at a critical juncture. The time has come for music lovers to take action to preserve our Texas music history for the education and enjoyment of future generations. Upcoming crucial decisions will be made for the TMM based upon the response to this request.

People have encouraged the TMM through the years, and have shown their support in many ways. The support came in all sizes and shapes; some performed or lent a hand at fundraisers, did yard work, distributed handbills, helped with security, sold tickets, assisted in the gift shop, and even arranged funeral flowers for our display: The Day the Music Died.

We sincerely appreciate all of you and now request everyone’s serious consideration as we take our next leap forward.

TMM needs your help!

Visit Willie's Hometown

When you come to visit the Texas Musicians Museum, be sure to take the time to visit Willie Nelson's hometown of Abbott, Texas, just 8 miles south of Hillsboro and 1 mile east of I-35.

Visit Willie's Abbott Cash Grocery & Market, the actual store that Willie used to visit when he was a youngster. When you go in, you will be greeted by Major, who is one of the nicest store clerks in Texas.
