Our trip last Friday to the Doss Heritage and Culture Center in Weatherford was wonderful! The Center showcased the talents and skills of fiber artist Katrina Wright and our children had a truly delightful time exploring the fabulous museum and taking turns being inside the authentic Stagecoach. It was a privilege to learn so much about the artist who made the Stagecoach and what it represented.
Our thanks to the beautiful staff and docents at the Doss Center. Weatherford has so much to be proud of in this precious jewel reflecting the heritage and culture of Parker County. I encourage everyone to visit.
