Attendees view photographs and documents laid out on tables hosted by Houston-area repositories during Old, Weird Houston 2026, hosted at the Orange Show.
Old, Weird Houston: Local History Fair & Archives Bazaar gathers and shares the stories of quirky and creative people, institutions, and events that have made Houston and the greater Houston area one of the most diverse and livable in the country. Organized in collaboration with The Orange Show Center for Visionary Art, Old, Weird Houston features a lineup of speakers active in the fields of history and library information science. Regional archives and collections both private and public display offbeat and rarely seen materials from their collections in a fair-style setting, along with food trucks and vendors specializing in Houston-proud books, crafts, library information science, and apparel.
The next Old, Weird Houston will be held in March 2028. Stay tuned!
