Turn rejection into Celebration!

Paintings, sculptures, photographs and mixed-media pieces that were not accepted into the annual “Stars of Texas” juried show. Visitors are invited to purchase works of art that are for sale and vote for a People’s Choice award. Warm, informal and often surprising, the Salon des Refusés embodies the Art Center’s commitment to inclusion and creative risk-taking, proving that great art thrives well beyond the jury’s shortlist.
