The City of Bryan is saddened to report the passing of former Bryan Mayor Mark Conlee. Mr. Conlee passed last night after a lengthy illness.
Nov. 29, 2021 marks the official 150th anniversary of the City of Bryan’s incorporation, and you’re invited to take part in upcoming activities celebrating this exciting milestone.
In the “150 Collection,” more than 30 items are on display at Clara B. Mounce Public Library and the Carnegie History Center for the city’s 150th anniversary. These items spam more than 150 years of cultural history in the community, including documents, photos and items that tell the story of Bryan. The exhibit is interactive, allowing visitors to scan QR codes to see more information about each item. Members of the public are encouraged to visit the display during the libraries’ open hours.
An interactive, media-rich timeline of Bryan’s history is now available to view on the 150th Anniversary website, 150.bryantx.gov. Visitors can read stories, watch videos and see photos and documents detailing the milestones in Bryan’s long history. You will hear from current and past community members about what living in Bryan was like, and learn more about the connections between Bryan, Stephen F. Austin, Harvey Mitchell and Texas A&M University.
Destination Bryan has two options for community members to experience history themselves through history tours:
Join the Bryan City Council in sending off a piece of 2021 to the future on Nov. 9 as they bury a time capsule in front of the Municipal Office Building. The capsule will include a variety of items indicative of current times in hopes of giving our descendants a glimpse of what it was like to live in Bryan now. Check 150.bryantx.gov closer to the date for the exact time.
