Wends Featured in Texas Co-op Power Magazine

The Texas Wendish Heritage Society was invited to do a featured article by our friends at Bluebonnet Electric Cooperative in the March 2022 Texas Co-op Power Magazine. Bluebonnet’s team came out to the museum where they interviewed Marian Wiederhold and Sandra Matthijetz about their Wendish heritage with a focus on Wendish Easter eggs. Sandra wore traditional clothing and demonstrated egg decorating. She posed for pictures and gave them a great deal of information about the eggs and how they are created. The magazines are arriving in mail boxes all over the area, but if you aren’t a co-op member, you can view it online.

We’d like to thank our friends at Bluebonnet Electric as well as Sandra and Marian for their contributions to this beautiful article.
