The Valley of the Caddo Museum & Cultural Center aspires to be an excellent world-class organization that appropriately displays, depicts and represents the history and culture of the four northeastern Texas Counties of Lamar, Fannin, Red River and Delta, which are stronger together than separately. The organization will be closely associated with Paris Junior College in promoting academic knowledge and education in areas of local history, archaeology, astronomy and the arts and will seek close alignment with The Smithsonian Institution as well as other recognized organizations.
