Join us for the official Grand Opening of the Purple Heart Exhibit at the Corpus Christi Museum of Science and History as we celebrate National Purple Heart Day and honor the courage, sacrifice, and legacy of our Coastal Bend Purple Heart recipients.
This permanent exhibit tells the stories of local heroes whose lives were forever changed in service to our nation. Through photographs, personal histories, and artifacts, the exhibit preserves their legacy and ensures future generations understand the true cost of freedom.
This is a historic moment for the Coastal Bend, and we invite veterans, military families, community members, educators, students, and supporters to be part of it.
