The Alliance’s work is getting some statewide attention! The Texas Historical Commission featured the Roy Orbison Mural painted last year in Vernon, TX by Selena Mize. The article appears in Summer 2021 edition of The Medallion.

“Main Street’s Back” by Debra Drescher highlights how innovation defined art and commerce across the state in 2020 amid the Covid-19 pandemic. Drescher says, “Art brings people together too, and plays a role in making downtown a destination.”

Thank you to the Texas Historical Commission for recognizing work in our region – and to our partners in Vernon!
