What a night. ✨

Masterpieces & Martinis brought Claude Monet to the Piney Woods of East Texas. The night was surrounded by beautiful art, great company, and a whole lot of generosity, and we thank everyone for supporting our mission!

To our gracious sponsors, Board of Directors, auction donors, and staff, a special thanks, as none of this is possible without you!

Thank you to our caterers, artists, and performers for providing a night full of good spirits, food, and lively entertainment!

Until next year. 🥂 Save the Date: September 25, 2027!

Step inside the dance halls that shaped Texas. 🎻

Waltz Across Texas features oil paintings by Gail Wendorf, who drove more than 75,000 miles to capture the state’s historic dance halls. She painted the weathered wood, the neon and the Saturday night spirit of the places where Texans have two stepped, swung and gathered for generations.

Now on view at the Longview Museum of Fine Arts through February 20.

📍 215 E. Tyler St., Longview
🕙 Tue to Fri 10 to 4 | Sat 10 to 5

Good morning, Longview! We are looking forward to a wonderful Longview ArtWalk: Fall 2026 this evening — rain or shine!

If there is rain, there will be a few changes to the Sculpture Garden schedule. The featured band, Team Lunch, will move inside to Ollies Skate Shop (thank you, Ollies!) while the 6:00-6:30 performances by the LHS Theatre and poetry by Isaac Perez will move indoors to LMFA - Longview Museum of Fine Arts (thank you, LMFA!)

Many of the 150+ registered vendors will still be setting up inside and outside of businesses all throughout downtown. You may see some extra tents popping up at uncovered spaces to help protect their work.

We need YOU to bring your family and friends to downtown Longview tonight from 5:00-8:00pm! We are looking forward to an evening of fun as we celebrate our incredible creative community!
