SUMMARY:"Brave-Too-Much": Curator's Remarks & Exhibit Preview

That’s exactly what makes this temporary exhibition so special. \nJoin Hammond Castle Museum for an exclusive opening celebration of “Brave-Too-Much”: The Legend of John Coffee Hays\, an original temporary exhibition presented in partnership with the Texas Ranger Hall of Fame and Museum in Waco\, Texas. Through the loan of museum artwork and fascinating stories\, this unique exhibition introduces New England audiences to the legendary Texas Ranger captain who was also the great-uncle and namesake of John Hays Hammond Jr. \nThe exhibition traces Hays’s extraordinary journey from joining the Texas Rangers at just 19 years old to becoming one of the most respected military leaders of his era. Notable Rangers who served under or alongside him include Samuel Walker\, co-inventor of the Colt Walker revolver\, the first practical six-shooter in the Old West\, and Flacco\, a Lipan Apache chief\, who gave him the nickname “Bravo-Too-Much” (aka “Brave-Too-Much”) for his boldness in battle. \nVisitors will explore his role in the Texas Republic\, the Mexican-American War\, the California Gold Rush\, and the founding of early California communities\, while also examining the complex history of the American frontier and the many cultures that shaped it. \nEvening program:\n5:30 pm–6:00 pm Networking\n6:00 pm–6:45 pm Presentation\n6:50 pm–7:30 pm Exhibit Tours\nLight refreshments will be served. \nBe among the very first to experience the exhibition before it opens to the public during this exclusive evening featuring: \n• Early access to the exhibition\n• A special curator’s presentation by Curatorial Director John Leysath\, sharing the research\, stories\, and historical significance behind the exhibition\n• Western-inspired refreshments and themed treats\n• Time to explore and celebrate this remarkable new exhibition with fellow western history enthusiasts \nFrom the battlefields of the Texas Republic to the halls of Hammond Castle Museum\, discover the surprising family connection that inspired generations and the extraordinary life of one of the American frontier’s most respected leaders. \nAdvance registration is required.
