Mayborn Debuts 18ft Balloon at Baylor Homecoming

This past weekend, the Mayborn Museum celebrated Baylor University’s homecoming with a first for our museum– an 18-foot balloon in the homecoming parade! It was a larger-than-life way to share our love of curiosity and the Baylor communi y. Participating in this university tradition gave us the opportunity to celebrate the connections that make the Mayborn special, and to bring a little museum sized wonder beyond our walls. Homecoming is about coming together, making memories, and celebrating the places that connect us. For the Mayborn, it was also a chance to look ahead. Our first parade balloon
marks a new chapter in how we share the joy of discovery, and we’re excited to carry that spirit
into the season ahead. 

Help us Reignite Curiosity– As the year draws to a close, we invite you to be part of Reigniting Curiosity, the Mayborn’s end of year giving campaign. Your gift is a meaningful way to support the museum as we transform our Natural History wing and keep curiosity at the heart of what we do. Together, we can encourage more questions, spark new interests, and celebrate the joy of learning. Keep the spirit of discovery going with a visit to the Mayborn this holiday season. Whether you’re gathering with family, welcoming out-of-town guests, or making time for a day together, include the museum in your plans. We loved being part of Baylor’s homecoming celebration, and we look forward to welcoming you through our doors. Here’s to big ideas, new traditions, and a season filled with curiosity!
