Mission :
The mission of the Brenham Heritage Museum is to foster the history, art, culture and humanities of the Brenham-Washington County, TX region.

Vision:
The Vision is a reflection of the Mission in that belief is held...
That a museum is more than a specific name or facility, rather it is the ethos for inspiration, provocation and edification
That environments of historical, architectural and cultural significance should be preserved and utilized as "living classrooms"
That exposure to the arts and humanities is not limited to a select few but offered to all seekers of knowledge and lovers of culture
That our efforts toward stewardship greatly benefit ourselves but more importantly, future generations
That the vehicle for which we present our programming should be unbiased, relevant, informative, experiential and enjoyable
That all individuals acquire and synthesis information in a distinctly unique manner and we promise to facilitate that process as a comfortable experience
That scholarship is both didactic and dialogic in nature and should be expressed accordingly
That the community holds a special type of ownership and reverence for its cultural institutions; we pledge to honor such stakeholders
