Two cities, countless stories, one gallery.

Every community has memories to share. The Bryan – College Station Community Showcase explores those stories through the work of more than 30 local artists. When brought together, these individual stories tell a larger narrative indicative of a united experience.

With pieces inspired by nature, childhood memories, grief, friendship, and even pop culture references, the emotional range of this exhibit is sure to capture the hearts of many. Not only diverse in topic, the artwork on display includes an array of styles and mediums. Visitors will enjoy oil, acrylic, watercolor, and digital paintings, as well as pencil and pastel drawings, wood and glass sculpture, and photography show the variety of talent and creativity from Bryan and College Station, TX artists.

This collection in all its different forms speaks to the uniqueness of the stories we share. In this exhibit, stories, memories, and the beauty found in the everyday, converge to create the the beautiful puzzle of our community.

Thank you to the more than 30 individual artists who submitted pieces to this exhibit. The Bryan-College Station Community Showcase was made possible only through your efforts and participation. Thank you also to the Arts Council of Brazos Valley who graciously donated their space.
