Howdy Y'all
Small Town, Big Do'ns, with 2
Museums, Live Theatre, Art Center, and
Old Mill Trade Days with nearly 500
Creative Vendors.
Located at the foot of the majestic Caprock that separates the flat
Llano Estacado from the rolling hills and canyons that mark the
ranching area of West Texas, Post offers a unique
history.
Founded in 1907 by breakfast cereal
magnate
Charles Williams Post,
as his "dream city". His vision drew him to one of the most
beautiful locations in West Texas, where the head waters of both
arms of the Brazos River join to outline the scenic Caprock
escarpment, home of cattle,
oil and
cotton.
The area is unmistakably cowboy country that offers a visual
surprise of beauty as you approach from any direction. It is so
completely different from the High Plains of Texas that you feel
like you are in another part of the world.
An Arts industry has
developed in the original city buildings, fulfilling a dream of C.W.
Post, of a rich cultural community. Post was awarded a "Main
Street City" designation in 1987.
Downtown buildings having been restored and are now home to unique
gift shops and stores. Post is easily reached on either U.S. 84 or
380 where you are always welcome and invited to stay and sit a
spell.
