The Arlington Historical Society presents “All the Bells & Whistles: The upsized history of homecoming mums in Texas,” a fun and interactive presentation by Amy J. Schultz.

Amy is the author of the award-winning book MUMENTOUS, a collection of personal stories, photographs, and deep dives into the 110+ year evolution of the homecoming mum tradition.

Feel free to bring your copy of MUMENTOUS for the author to sign, or purchase your autographed copy at the event.

The event takes place at the Fielder House in Arlington, TX. In addition to Amy’s talk, enjoy the museum’s current exhibit. It focuses on the history of Arlington in the 1950s, including the State Champion Team in 1951.
