As these images illustrate, The East Texas Art League believes in the power and passion of the visual arts. Formed during the summer of 2001, the organization incorporated and obtained an IRS 501(c)3 non-profit status the following year. Our membership grew from 30 charter members to a current, active membership of 70.
The lower floor houses two gallery spaces, "Exhibits" (open to all artists 18 and up thru rotating events) and "Gallery Hall" (for members only), as well as a classroom, gift shop, kitchen, and restroom. "Exhibits" features 2-4 exhibits per year representing national, regional, and local artists. Here you'll enjoy two and three-dimensional works of art featuring a wide diversity of styles and media that ranges from the profoundly abstract to the hauntingly realistic.
East Texas Regional Arts Center on Austin St.
In the summer of 2002, we purchased the old Morgan Hotel, a two story structure (located near downtown Jasper) dating back to the early 20th century. Thanks to a grant from the City of Jasper, the bottom floor was renovated and opened as the East Texas Regional Art Center (ETRAC) in the spring of 2003. For the first time in its history, the City of Jasper, Texas offered a facility dedicated to the support and cultivation of the arts for the surrounding area.
