Another round of the fun! We can’t wait to share the official photos from this phenomenal night when we get them. For now, we are overflowing with gratitude for our sponsors, our attendees, our partner vendors, our committee, board, and staff. There is so. Much. Good at this beloved place and we are thankful for every helping hand and heart! Art Education WON last night—what an incredible gift.

The Deep in the Art of Texas team has been dreaming, planning, wiping down chairs and chargers, sweeping, placing napkins, cutting, setting up, and working so hard for months to make this inaugural fundraiser a big hit . . . And it’s finally here! The Museum is so grateful for the unbelievable talents and gifts this team possesses and their willingness to share them with the Museum and our community. The Museum was founded by volunteers and our volunteers have kept us thriving since 1976. We can’t wait to celebrate art education tonight! Yee haw!!!
