ABOUT US
Seguin Art League is a 501(c)3 managed by volunteer artists.
Seguin Art League is a nonprofit 501(c)3 organization made up of volunteer artists. Our mission is to bring local and regional artists together for mutual inspiration and advancement. We were established in 1982 by a group of artists that gathered in their homes to develop and collaborate their artistic talents.
We are located in the heart of beautiful downtown Seguin, Texas. We are currently raising funds to renovate 104 S. Austin Street (The Klein Opera House) to be the Seguin Art League Gallery and Performing Arts Center. As we work on our building renovation, we continue to showcase the work of numerous league members in our store front windows. The media includes watercolor, oil, acrylic, photography, sculpture, mosaic and a variety of other art forms.
Support us in making our gallery an addition to our downtown treasures.

Inspiring Artists
The leadership of the Seguin Art League has steadily supported the mission of connecting the arts and our community. Their enthusiasm and commitment has continuously supported the arts by organizing art shows, educational events and collaborating with area businesses and schools to inspire the community through various art forms.
