Visual Arts Center

Duncan-McAshan Visual Arts Center

A 1,700 square foot gallery, four art studios, a ceramic lab and press studio comprise the Duncan-McAshan Visual Arts Center. The gallery exhibition schedule includes a full range of art in virtually all media. Exhibitions feature local as well as nationally and internationally recognized artists. Works of art are available for purchase at most of the shows, and admission to the gallery is always free.

The Hill Country Arts Foundation has been hosting art workshops for over half a century, and offers programs and support for artists of all ages. The roster of artists who have taught here reads like a who’s who of the art community locally, regionally and nationally. Although all of our workshops emphasize hands-on learning, many instructors supplement this using current technology, demonstrations and lectures. Full tuition is due 30 days prior to each workshop, and lab and/or material fees are payable to the instructor on or before the first day of class. Specific information on exhibits and workshops may be viewed on our website.

Facilities

HCAF members have always taken pride in the quality of the instructors who facilitate our workshops as well as in the superb facilities which we all work hard to maintain and improve. All studios are on ground level with no steps, eliminating any problem of accessibility. The painting studios have north light and are fully equipped with mirrors, tables, easels and every conceivable amenity. The ceramic studio is the only fully-equipped ceramic studio in the area that is open for public use. Every studio is climate controlled, and can also be opened up to the superb fresh air that we enjoy in the Hill Country. Studio rentals are available throughout the year for individuals,retreats and small groups, including members and non-members. Members, however, always have first priority when scheduling classes or other events in the studios.
