The LBJ Museum was established in 1997 to honor the legacy of Texas State University graduate, President Lyndon B. Johnson, the only U.S. President to graduate from a Texas university.
The two story museum located at 131 N. Guadalupe in San Marcos features exhibits and artifacts from President Johnson’s years as a student from 1927-1930 and his teaching experiences in South Texas.
His formative years here shaped landmark civil rights, education, and anti-poverty legislation enacted during his presidency from 1963-1969. The museum’s endowment honors Lady Bird Johnson for her singular impact on the President’s career and legacy.
The Claudia Taylor Johnson Endowment raises funds from donations, gifts and fund-raisers to support new exhibits, acquisition of artifacts, and special programs.
The LBJ Museum is free and open to the public Thursday-Saturday from 10 a.m. – 5 p.m. Facilities for community meetings are available for rental.
