Welcome to Texans for the Arts (TFA), the Official Arts Advocacy Organization for Texas. Texans for the Arts is a grass-roots 501(c) 4 non-profit organization incorporated in 1993. Texans for the Arts provides coordinated information about legislative activity relating to arts issues and organizes advocacy efforts in order to increase public funding for the arts in Texas. TFA represents individuals and organizations from across the state.

What’s in it for you?

It’s no secret that if the arts funding “pie” gets bigger, more organizations can be served. In addition, current funding to your organization could increase with more resources available. ACTION IS NEEDED! Increasing arts funding doesn’t just materialize. This is where you come in. Your active participation and financial support can help Texans for the Arts articulate the demand for more funding that we all know exists in communities across the state.

If more funding is available for the arts, whether through the hotel/motel tax or the Texas Commission on the Arts grants programs, the better your chances are of receiving additional support. Please help us spread the word and increase the wealth! Join now.
