Our Work in Historic Preservation
The Today Foundation is a leader in the historic preservation of Texas communities as evidenced by the decades long, unending commitment to significant community projects supported by the foundation.
Union Baptist Church
Union Baptist Church is Jefferson City’s first place of workshop for the African-American community. The church traces its roots from 1842 and serves as a reminder of the fascinating post-Civil War era in Texas as well as an anchor in the community.
House of the Seasons
The “House of the Seasons” built in 1872 by lawyer and political leader Benjamin H. Epperson, is an historic home known for its architectural blend of Greek Revival and Victorian (Italianate) styles. The namesake cupola features stained-glass windows that represent the four seasons. The house served as a private residence and a former university, and is now a well-restored historic museum and bed and breakfast with reproduction furnishings and American Empire and Renaissance Revival antiques.
