SAMFA's Grand Re-Opening

On behalf of the San Angelo Museum of Fine Arts’ Board of Trustees and staff, I invite you to our Grand Re-Opening the first quarter of 2024.

Under our beautiful new copper roof, we’ll premiere exciting events, world-class exhibitions, and reimagined programming. Mark your calendar and register soon for the events that require it, and encourage your friends, colleagues, and family to join in, as well.

SAMFA’s mission is to serve as a catalyst for creativity and community. We inspire people of diverse ages and backgrounds from the Concho Valley Region by presenting the highest quality visual and performing arts from around the world. The result of this beautiful, dynamic connection is lifelong enrichment for all.

Come celebrate SAMFA’s bright, new future! Amazing art, music, and classes await!

Laura Huckaby
Interim Director, Curator
San Angelo Museum of Fine Arts


 We want to thank our generous sponsors for contributing to SAMFA's bright new future!

About the instructor: Becky Templeton Strout

Becky: “I am an observer of life and the inherent artful nature of things. I grew up with a painter mother who was in her studio daily

I have enjoyed painting, graphic arts, interior design, photography, and sculpture.”
