The beautifully restored Kidd-Key Auditorium and Austin College hosts a community concert series including opera arias, chamber music, pop performances and even the Sherman Symphony Orchestra. The Sherman Jazz Museum gives you a different perspective on the local art scene. It is home to Maynard Ferguson’s entire estate. At this estate you can take tours or watch programs, both of which outline the history of jazz music in America. You can watch the city’s art and culture come to life at local museums like the Sherman Museum. The city has a rich history so it’s only fitting that when you visit, you surround yourself with a wealth of information with help from the museum’s exhibits and photos that chronicle the city’s history from the mid-19th century.
