Tyler Rose Museum.

Tyler Rose Museum

Small museum, but an ambitious display of elaborate gowns/costumes from past Rose Festival pageants.

[Todd Kent, 11/24/2017]
Tyler Rose Museum

Think Dallas or Dynasty. Rich parents spend tens of thousands of dollars on an annual beauty contest in a small town. Lots of gorgeous dresses of the queen and her court. Worth a look to see how the 1% spend their money.
