The Lone Star Art Guild is a non-profit organization which was
started in Brenham, Texas on April 17, 1961. It is made up of
any art leagues that wish to be a member within a 200 mile
radius of Houston, Texas. The object of the guild is to advance
the study and dissemination of fine art in all of its forms by
promoting the appreciation of art and fine craftsmanship through
workshops, lectures, demonstrations and exhibits. Once a year,
LSAG holds an Annual Convention in which award winners in guild
member judged shows during the year compete for awards. It's
"the best of the best". The Woodlands Art League, Tomball Art
League and Northwest Art League will be the hosts of the 2010
LSAG Convention which will be held in May at the Conroe
Convention Center.
This year’s convention was a TREMENDOUS success with several
Woodlands Art League members winning various ribbons BUT most
importantly, the winner of "Best of Show" and the "Mayor's Choice"
award was our very own, Ann Walker!
