The Children’s Texas Art Festival celebrates art—created by and for children—that helps forge a connection to Texas and American heritage.

Families are invited to enjoy art-making workshops, games, and a group project. Demonstrations emphasize the way art keeps people connected to the past, how it improves the present, and why preserving it is important for the future.
