Event Calendar

Get hands-on with history at the Magoffin Home State Historic Site! Join us for Historic Adobe Work Days on April 12 and May 3, 2025, from 10 AM to 2 PM. Learn the age-old craft of adobe brick-making using traditional methods and materials from Magoffin Home staff and volunteers. Not only will you contribute to preserving this historic treasure, but you’ll also enjoy a delicious hot dog lunch! All participants will also have a behind-the-scenes tour of the Magoffin Home, highlighting areas of future preservation that are usually kept behind closed doors.

Participation is just $10 per person, and space is limited, so be sure to RSVP. This is a unique opportunity to connect with El Paso’s history, meet fellow preservation enthusiasts, and leave your mark on this historic site.

To reserve your spot, call 915-533-5147 or email Magoffin-Home@thc.texas.gov. Don’t miss this chance to build more than bricks—help build history!

This workshop is hosted by the Texas Historical Commission at the Magoffin Home State Historic Site located at 1120 Magoffin Avenue.
