Palacios Pathways is a yearlong oral history project celebrating the people, work, memory, and everyday life of Palacios, Texas. Through portraits, interviews, and recorded stories, the project will gather voices from across Palacios’ many cultures, industries, generations, and lived experiences. These materials will be organized into a searchable archive and shared through public exhibits, education, digital storytelling, walking tours, and community outreach. Participants are not subjects; they are contributors helping shape a shared record of the place they call home. Together, these stories will preserve the memory, labor, identity, and life of Palacios.
