Gown to Glory: Youth Fashion & History Challenge
This exciting new youth contest draws direct inspiration from one of Texas’ most iconic symbols: the Come and Take It flag—originally sewn from a wedding dress in 1835 by Sara Seely DeWitt and her daughter Evaline, just days before the Battle of Gonzales. In tribute, the Gown to Glory event invites young participants to honor that legacy through creativity, storytelling, and design.
