This is what we do

Introduction

Founded in 2014 by visionary B. Alan Bourgeois, the Texas Authors Institute of History, Inc. (TAIH) stands as the first museum dedicated to preserving and celebrating the legacy of Texas authors. By honoring over 200 years of literary contributions and supporting contemporary voices, TAIH bridges the past, present, and future of Texas literature under one roof, ensuring that the stories of Texas authors are never forgotten.

Mission

The Texas Authors Museum & Institute of History is committed to preserving the rich literary history of Texas while inspiring and educating future generations. By providing a space where the written word is celebrated, TAMIH fosters an environment for authors to grow, create, and thrive.

Business

TAMIH is dedicated to building a one-of-a-kind campus that serves as both a museum and retreat. This innovative space will house millions of works by Texas authors, offer educational opportunities for aspiring writers, and inspire creativity through programs like the statewide Short Story Adults. By connecting the legacy of past writers with the voices of tomorrow, TAMIH champions Texas literature in a supportive, inclusive, and inspirational environment.
