Frisco Heritage Museum's "Woven Together" Exhibit Captures TRAPS Art & Humanities Achievement AwardSource: City of Frisco

The Frisco Heritage Museum is basking in a bit of statewide spotlight after its "Woven Together" exhibit snagged the TRAPS Art & Humanities Achievement Award, a significant nod given to programs that stand out in the arts and humanities sector within parks and recreation departments across the state. The folks over at Play Frisco are popping the champagne, and they've got every right to be proud—they're the ones behind the museum's showy win.

The community-based exhibit, which highlights the diverse threads of personal heritage that knit the fabric of Frisco, became an instant smash hit thanks to the contributions of local families who weren't shy about showcasing their unique stories, and the Frisco Inclusion Committee who seemingly worked around the clock to make the dream a reality. According to the City of Frisco, "We're grateful for all the individuals who shared their pieces of their family's heritage to make this exhibit an amazing experience," they said, and truly it's these heartfelt, home-grown contributions that have woven a spell over the visiting crowds.

Dust off your planners and mark down a trip to see what the fuss is about—the award-winning "Woven Together" exhibit isn't going anywhere just yet, it's stationed at the museum until June 1. Frisco's very own patchwork of stories is waiting to be explored, and it’s doing the city proud on a scale that's beyond city limits.

You've got to hand it to those at the Frisco Inclusion Committee, their eye for genuine tales of culture and kinship hasn't just brought home the bacon, it's underscored the rich tapestry that's Frisco’s community—turns out, that's exactly the kind of authentic flavor that the TRAPS state judges were tasting for. For more details on museum times and what you can expect from a visit, that might just upend your weekend plans for the better, head on over to the Frisco Heritage Museum website. Go take a peek into the kaleidoscope of local heritage before it's too late, because you know, all good things—and exhibits—must come to an end.
