The Alvin Museum Society's constitution was adopted on April 12, 1976. The Society's stated mission is "to preserve the history of Alvin and its immediate area by heightening residents' awareness of the value of saving the past for the benefit of the future. Exhibits, programs, and activities that educate the museums' patrons are offered. Selected for preservation are structures, objects, documents, photographs, oral and visual histories, and all artifacts that add to the telling of Alvin's story." The Society owns and operates the Marguerite Rogers House Museum and the Alvin Historical Museum both of which are open for touring.

Ghosts at the Museum


The Alvin Museum Gift Shop offers a variety of gift items and museum society memorabilia. Newest books include Ghosts Along the Brazos by Catherine Munson Foster and A Narrative History of Brazoria County by James A. Creighton. Both of these books are difficult to find. Our newest items are some woven rugs by Donna Rae Harris. We also have books, paintings, jewelry, stationery items all crafted by local residents as well as crosses, pendants, and souvenir items.

The Alvin Museum Gift Shop is located at the Alvin Historical Museum, 300 W. Sealy. It is open on Thursdays, Fridays, and the first Saturday of the month from 11:00 a.m. - 3:00 p.m. Plan a visit soon. You'll be glad you did!
