Field Trips
The Alden B. Dow Office museum has played a large role in Lake Jackson's history and development. The space has housed multiple businesses and organizations and has since been restored to it's original form. Come learn about its interesting past and see our rotating exhibits!
Please note: the space can accommodate approximately 45 people at a time,
making it great for specialized
field trips!
The Jackson Plantation Historic Site, a formerly operating sugar mill, is now an archaeological site. The site contains the remains of the main house, the mill, and several other buildings left behind after the Hurricane of 1900.
Please note: the site is completely outdoors! We are excited to host groups, but will need to do so with the
weather in mind.
