Unfortunately we will not be holding a Palettes & Paintings this year
We are sincerely grateful to all artists who have helped us with this in the past and hope that we will have enough help to resume this fundraiser in the future.
We are still adding to our collection this year
and students will be selecting and purchasing art to add to our collection.
We hope to schedule an Open House in the spring
to invite the public to see our collection.
Thanks again for your support
Visit our 100 Friends of Art page to help us with a donation to pay for framing, lighting and conservation.

Our 2016 Fundraiser and Gala "Palettes and Paintings" took place on Friday, February 5th from 7:00pm-9:30pm
The Woodlands High School Art Trust was established to help maintain and organize the student-selected, student-purchased art collection at The Woodlands High School. To raise funds to help display and conserve the art collection, the Art Trust is presents the 6th Annual, "Palettes & Paintings". The Art Trust distributed over 100 wooden art palettes free to art teachers, art students, art alumni, area artists, administrators and others (primarily at TWHS and its feeder schools). The palettes were then transformed into master pieces of art. The palettes were painted on, carved into, incorporated into larger pieces, and manipulated in many ways by each artist. On the night of the unveiling of the student selected pieces, the palettes were offered for silent auction. The public was invited to bid on these the night of the gala. The proceeds from the silent auction will be dedicated entirely to the preservation of the new art collection. Bidding for the palettes began at very affordable prices. Purchases of the palettes are tax deductible and the proceeds are applied to items such as lighting, UV protection and security of the new artworks. Donations can also be made directly to the Art Trust to support the program.
This is a free event and all are welcome.
