African American Museum will present the annual Texas Black Invitational Rodeo, featuring hundreds of African American cowboys and cowgirls competing for $25,000 in cash prizes in bronc and bull riding, calf and steer roping, barrel racing, and a Pony Express relay race, plus on-field kids activities, trick lasso performances, concessions, music, and more.

Kicking off with the Grand Entry Parade, this fast-paced evening also provides guests with a glimpse of the historical contributions that African Americans made in settling the western United States. Dr. Robert Ashley will serve as grand marshal.
