Hope for Spring: America 250, Stars & Stripes Forever

The Neill-Cochran House Museum will host Hope for Spring: America 250, Stars and Stripes Forever from May 4, 2026 – April 5, 2026. This is an open-call juried art exhibition open to all Central Texas artists age 18 and up. Each year the Museum presents a theme, and in honor of the 250th the theme in 2026 will focus on what America means to us all. We accept artwork in any medium that fits the theme and place the work on view throughout the historic house.
