Since September, 1976, folks in Williamson County have embraced fine art as a way of life. Founded by Steve Benton and Sheila Crabill, the Art Guild has been promoting art education and art events for over a quarter century.
A nonprofit organization governed by a volunteer board elected annually, the Williamson County Art Guild (WCAG) provides members and the public with information about a wide range of art subjects designed to inspire and produce opportunities for creative involvement and artistic development.
Offering art shows, exhibits, programs, and classes, the WCAG currently operates a gallery in The Framers Gallery at 610 S Main Street, just north of the Courthouse Square in Georgetown, Texas, seat of Williamson County.
Guild members provide:
Programs of information for appreciation, training and development of art and art culture. Monthly meetings are free and open to the public.
Support offered to schools who need outside artists to teach and demonstrate art.
Teachers that work with the W.S. Lott Center and the Williamson County Academy.
Plan and give art shows in Williamson County.
The Guild participates in events on the square: Red Poppy Festival, Christmas Stroll, First Friday and other events.
Artists from the Guild help to make the downtown interesting and inviting to visitors by painting windows and walls.
The Guild fosters teaching programs that further the arts.
