Highlights of the evening will be entertaining stories about LBJ's time in San Marcos by Texas State University professors and special guests, along with vintage cocktails. In 1927 Lyndon Johnson enrolled in Southwest Texas Teachers College. He became Texas State's most famous student and was the only U.S. President to graduate from a Texas University. The LBJ Museum is an anchor of the San Marcos MainStreet® program, located at 131 N. Guadalupe Street. The museum educates several thousand guests each year and has been constantly improving since opening in 2006. Leadership San Marcos is a program that trains individuals to become tomorrow's community organizers and directors. The 2014 class project to install a new attention-grabbing lighted sign for the museum will attract more downtown visitors to the museum and provide a visual symbol of the museum's character. The evening promises to be one of this year's memorable "Don't Miss!" events.
