The grantees are Sarah Ayala, Sara Cardona, Janeil Engelstad, Julia Jalowiec, David Jeremiah, Cynthia Mulcahy, Nancy Newberry, Darryl Ratcliff, Raul Rodriquez, and Third Space DFW.

Three artists will each receive a $1000 stipend, plus mentorship and other resources.

Since we reported on openings in Fort Worth, San Antonio, and Houston recently, more museums have reopened.

As we commemorate Juneteenth, the day that marked The Emancipation Proclamation's arrival to Texas a full two and a half years after the 1863 decree, these works emphasize how long the road has been, and how far still we have to go.

Although some events have been canceled and others have moved online due to the Coronavirus pandemic, some Juneteenth festivities are happening across the state.

The $30,000 to $100,000 grants will be geared to rural and urban organizations that have statewide, regional, or national impact, especially the  historically under-resourced, and those who represent under-resourced populations, communities, and art forms.

The exhibition, "The Fact of Fiction," extends the Landmarks Video program into the VAC’s Fieldworks gallery.

The funds, totaling $84 million, amount to 1,144 new awards to organizations in all 50 states.

AAAFF's Shorts Festival is in lieu of the 12th annual staging of the event, which was slated for July, but canceled due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Both relocation moves are expected to be permanent, with the hope that the new locations will provide better context for the sculptures.

With announcements from the Kimbell and the Modern Art Museum earlier today, all three major Fort Worth fine art museums now have reopenings scheduled.

The Museum also announced its lineup for the ongoing "Modern TV" online film series.

The Kimbell's special exhibition, 'Flesh and Blood: Italian Masterpieces from the Capodimonte Museum,' has been extended through July.

In addition, the MFAH will add a section from its own collection of art made by black American artists in Houston and Texas during the period covered by the exhibition, including works by John Biggers, Kermit Oliver, and Carroll Harris Simms.

'EVERYTHING HURTS' stems from Dallas-based artist Jammie Holmes' initiative 'THEY'RE GOING TO KILL ME' on May 30, in response to the killing of George Floyd while Floyd was in Minneapolis police custody.

This is the second large public art intervention to happen in Texas over the past ten days.

The revelation about George Floyd's time in Houston has completely upended my perspective on "Slowed."

He was a kind man who struggled with life as we all sometimes do, and created a path of his own.

Over the past 24 hours, other museums across the country have issued similar statements.

The fund supports artists affected by "postponed or cancelled arts-related events, loss of arts-related work, or loss of supplemental income," and will be  based on financial need.
