We have selected several artists and makers in the SETX region to participate in a new event called “Look What I Can Do”! It will be a live interactive art demonstration festival where participating artists will interact and demonstrate their process to the public.
The ClayFest is a public event involving demonstrations and workshops for those interested in making ceramics, admiring completed works, or just interested in watching the fascinating process.
Gumbo ClayFest will feature several nationally-recognized ceramists who will demonstrate the different techniques for which they are known.

The Alternative Show is specifically directed to the novice, outsider, and beginning artists along with the myriad of creatives, young and old, skilled, and not so much, who grace our walls with art. Not only is it a positive experience for everyone, but it’s also a chance to exhibit in a collective of works by people who share the love of art in all its joys and aberrations. As an exhibitor, here or anywhere, you have joined an amazing community of like-minded people who are erratically different.
Come view TASI’s Annual Juried Member Exhibition, on display in the Main Gallery from April 6-26!
Gallery hours; 12-5 pm, Tues-Sat
Photography, Watercolor, Collage, Clay, and more, open for different ages and skill levels – ALL materials included!

At our inception, we felt there had to be a community outreach arm of the organization. With that in mind, our mission statement demands that we foster a tie with the artists and this community. Our engagement works in many ways. We hold classes in a variety of disciplines including printmaking, ceramics, watercolor, color theory, drawing, and photography, as well as programs tailored to people with special needs. Art therapy has become a new avenue toward improving the health of people in our community and we are working with mental health professionals to provide fun and entertaining programs with a deeper purpose of improving the hearts and minds of that unique community.
“My biggest hope for each work I do is to have it pull on the hearts of the person looking at it; to evoke their emotions in the deepest ways and have them see the beauty in things they never knew was there. To feel the love that I put into each piece.”
