TLC's Art for Conservation

Texas Land Conservancy is hosting Art for Conservation at The Austin Winery on Sunday, November 1, from 3 PM to 7 PM. It's a one-night art showcase and fundraiser built around Texas nature-inspired artwork, with artist talks and conservation stories woven in. The afternoon also brings together live music, food, and wine tastings, so it's more of a full afternoon than a quick gallery walk.

The art is the center of the room, and the talks let you hear from the artists about the work. The conservation stories provide the context for why the land matters. All the proceeds and sponsorships go toward the Texas Land Conservancy's mission to protect land and connect people to nature, so the money raised stays focused on that work. If you're into Texas landscapes and the people who paint or photograph them, this is a good place to see them in one room.

For those looking to get involved beyond attending, there are sponsorship levels: Wildflower at $2,500, Rooted at $1,000, and Seedling at $500. Sponsors get their logo and name on the event materials, and the money goes toward the Conservancy's land protection efforts. If you want your name on those materials, you'll need to secure your sponsorship by October 16, 2026.

It all happens on Sunday, November 1, from 3 PM to 7 PM at The Austin Winery in Austin, with the art, the music, the food, and the wine tastings running throughout the afternoon.
