NEW: Atrium Gallery at the Cotton Mill Arts District

In celebration of America 250, MillHouse Foundation and the Cotton Mill Partners announce the inaugural Cotton Mill Arts District Atrium Gallery Exhibition honoring Trailblazing Texas Wonder Women. 

These women transformed society as icons and pioneers in thought-leadership, innovation, entertainment, business, and activism – each with giant shoulders we stand on today.

Up to 25 48x60 original artworks will be selected by a juried panel. Artists may highlight one or more Texas Wonder Women to create artistic renderings depicting their hero stories. The selected artists may create interpretive artwork exploring symbolism, color, form, and context, as well as portraits, to represent these iconic Texas women for their extraordinary vision, leadership, bravery, and persistence against all odds. Up to three artworks per artist may be selected for the Exhibition.

One artist will be selected for the $5000 Texas Trailblazer Award, and five artists will be selected for the $500 Lone Star Awards. 

Thank you to all who entered. Entries are now closed.

Exhibition dates: June 12-August 30

Meet the Artists Reception: June 27 4-6:00 pm
