Kilgore Texas Former Post Office – Guest

October 5, 2023 By Roger

ADDRESS: 200 S Kilgore St, Kilgore, TX 75662
ARTIST: Xavier Gonzalez
TITLE: Pioneer Saga, Music of the Plains, Contemporary Youth, Drilling for Oil
MEDIUM: Oil on canvas (mural)
STATUS: The former Kilgore post office is no longer an active operating postal facility. However, the murals are still located here and can be viewed. They reside on the walls of the former lobby and above the former postmaster’s door.
YEAR: 1941

The Kilgore Historical Preservation Foundation was instrumental in preserving the old post office and creating the building as the Kilgore History and Arts Center. The four murals have been returned to the former post office which has been restored beautifully. The post office closed in 1998. From 1999 to 2019 the murals were housed in the East Texas Oil Museum. They were returned in 2019 to their former location; the KHPF purchased the former Post Office from the USPS in 1999.

Thanks Roger
