August Open House ft. Out West Exhibit

Join us for a special evening full of incredible art, music + entertainment paired with complimentary craft cocktails and unbeatable vibes.

Be the first to experience our newest exhibition : Out West.This exhibit will reimagines the iconography of the American West through the eyes of eight dynamic local women artists. From sweeping landscapes and desert textures to cowboy myths and frontier femininity, the exhibit explores how the West continues to shape identity, memory, and place. Each artist offers a distinct visual language—blending tradition with subversion, nostalgia with grit—inviting viewers to question what the West was, is, and could be.

Rooted in both reverence and rebellion, Out West will be a reclamation of space in a genre long dominated by masculine ideals, highlighting voices that expand the narrative of Western art today.

Plus, shop hundreds of original artworks by Austin's largest women and nonbinary artist collective, atxGALS.

Voted as one of the top three places to see art in Austin, this woman and immigrant-owned gallery is proud to present this bold and intentional exhibit.

Thank you for supporting local women + nonbinary artists and a local Latina-owned business!
