Unique Texas Artistry

Texas art
Texas is known for its thriving contemporary art scene, and the Texas Sculpture Garden, which can be found in Hall Park, Frisco, is the perfect example of this. Created to nurture the impressive talent of local artists, the sculpture park is home to over 40 works of art, making it the largest collection of contemporary sculpture that Texas has seen so far.

Exterior Highlights
The sculptures found in the exterior of the Texas Sculpture Garden are most definitely impressive, with many of them using height and scale to their advantage. Maternal Caress is a sculpture that never fails to capture the hearts of many visitors, representing the unconditional love, and unbreakable bond, between mother and child. This piece was created by Eliseo S. Garcia, a local artist that has won numerous public art competitions. Time Management is another poignant sculpture, this one making a point about the way in which individuals choose to lead their life and spend their time, which is a subject that is becoming increasingly significant as the years progress. Other highlights of the Exterior include Coming Out of the Circle by Dallas artist Sherry Owens, which features an extraordinary level of craftsmanship, Prairie Falls by David Hickman, which makes use of copper and marble, and The Wiz, an engaging abstract piece by Art Shirer.

Interior Highlights
Continuing into the first floor of the lobby, the Interior of the Texas Sculpture Garden contains pieces that are just as captivating as the exterior, although many of them are on a smaller scale. Clock Rider by Richard Neidhardt is a thought-provoking piece that focuses on the topic of time, while Bird Window, by Tim Nentrup, was originally inspired by a retail display at a women’s fashion store, and features French windows with eighty birds perched on the frame. Panther is another awe-inspiring piece, created by Dallas artist Isaac Smith. Smith is a self-taught woodcarver that has been creating spectacular wildlife sculptures for over 40 years, and the Panther that you will see at the Texas Sculpture Garden features a level of intricacy that only hints at how time-consuming the process of woodcarving is.

The Hall Collection
In addition to being home to the Texas Sculpture Garden, Hall Park also boasts the Hall Collection, over 150 works of art by artists from all over the world. These include everything from sketches to sculpture to photography to glass art, with topics ranging from the comical to the serious, and is a must-visit for art lovers that are planning to spend some time at the Texas Art Garden. These pieces are scattered throughout the park, both outside as well as inside various buildings, and there are maps available so that visitors can easily find their way around and plan their day.

Texas has long since supported its local artists, and, as a result, the state has been rewarded by an incredible amount of talent. The Texas Sculpture Garden showcases some of the best sculptors that Texas has produced, and is definitely worth a visit from any art enthusiasts out there.

18b – The Las Vegas Arts District

Signboard for 18b Arts District in Las Vegas.

The 18b Arts District in Downtown Las Vegas, otherwise known as the Las Vegas Arts District, consists of an eclectic mix of independent art galleries, one-of-a-kind stores and unique eateries. Its name comes from the original Arts District that was created in 1988 when 18 blocks were set aside to encourage and boost the arts. Today, the 18b Arts District has sprawled out well beyond these original 18 blocks and is definitely a must-visit when in Vegas.

18b Art Galleries
The 18b Arts District is home to a number of exciting independent art galleries. 303 North Studio is owned by artist James Henninger and showcases upcoming and established artists from the Las Vegas and Los Angeles areas. The Brett Wesley Gallery features contemporary paintings, photography and sculpture, while Clay Arts Vegas focuses on ceramics, with fantastic exhibitions as well as classes. Gainsburg Studio is a stone carving studio that is always worth a visit, while Sandman Studios is run by an artist that specializes in glass etchings.

18b Shops
The shops in the 18b Arts District are beautifully diverse, and a stroll through the area will have you coming across a number of one-of-a-kind stores. For vintage clothing and accessories, head to Amberjoy’s Vintage Closet, as well as Electric Lemonade, a fun vintage and new lifestyle boutique. Armstrong’s Emporium is always a hot spot for antiques, while Corner Store Furniture Co. usually has some unique vintage furniture finds. JJC Clocks, Antiques and Collectables pride themselves on being the largest antique clock shop in the Tri-state area, and also boast quite an impressive rare clock collection. For those looking for gifts, Gaia Flowers specializes in sustainably grown flowers and locally made gifts, as well as stationary and other quirky items.

18b Restaurants
Las Vegas is known for its thriving food scene, and the restaurants found in 18b are the perfect reflection of this. Bar Bistro @ The Arts Factory is always a happening spot, because not only do they serve up some of the tastiest Latin fusion dishes in town, but they also have 16 art galleries, live music performances, body painting, and live artist painting sessions. Pop Up Pizza is another popular restaurant, mostly due to the quality of their food thanks to fresh ingredients, homemade tomato sauce, and the perfect crust. Casa Don Juan is a vibrant Mexican joint, while Bier Garten prides themselves on their “Beercraft and Foodery”, serving up a delectable selection of artisan sausages and craft beers. Just like many other thriving arts communities around the world, 18b caters well to vegans and vegetarians, with the Bronze Café and the Pura Vida Bakey and Bystro in particular, the latter of which serves up unforgettable Caribbean fusion dishes.

18b is also where First Friday is hosted each month, an arts festival that is considered to be the premier arts event in all of Las Vegas, attracting a diverse crowd, one-of-a-kind art, street performances, and guaranteed fun. The 18b Arts District is always an exciting area of Vegas to spend some time in, whether you have particular shops or restaurants in mind or are just browsing through the fantastic mix of offerings, so do check it out the next time you are in the city if you haven’t already done so.
