M.O.P.H. Chapter 598 and the Corpus Christi Museum of Science and History are proud to announce that we have officially crossed the finish line of the design phase for the Permanent Purple Heart Exhibit.

 

 

This landmark exhibit will honor the courage, sacrifice, and stories of Coastal Bend Purple Heart recipients—creating a place where our community can learn, reflect, and remember.

For the Coastal Bend, this is more than an exhibit. It is a commitment to ensuring that the price paid by our warriors is never forgotten… and that their stories continue to echo through the generations that follow.

 

With the design phase now complete, we remain fully on track for our grand opening on

August 8th, 2026.

 

There is still time for Purple Heart recipients and Purple Heart families to be included in this historic project. We invite you to submit your information, records, and stories to become part of the exhibit and ensure your legacy is represented.

 

All submissions will not only contribute to the exhibit itself, but will also be archived and preserved in the Library of Congress—ensuring these stories are safeguarded forever.

 

We look forward to sharing more updates as we move into the next stage of bringing this place of honor to life for the Coastal Bend and all who call it home.
