Texas Arts and Music Festival

The ninth annual Texas Arts & Music Festival in historic Downtown Brenham is just around the corner! Join us October 18-20, 2024, for a family-friendly weekend of art, music, street food, and activities in the streets of Downtown Brenham.

Each year the Texas Arts & Music Festival brings live music and world-renowned mural artists for live art installations for the public to enjoy. This year for the first time, the festival will host a juried art show alongside the expected slate of activities.  The show is eligible for any artist to enter and will be open during festival operating hours on Saturday and Sunday, with an added invite-only opening Friday evening.

Texas Arts and Music Festival will feature live music throughout the day on Saturday, October 20 with Brazos Valley’s own Kane Alvarado opening with a rock and blues set from 2 to 3:30 p.m.

Willow Creek Junction will follow from 4 to 5:30 p.m.  Based out of Magnolia, the band offers a balanced repertoire of original compositions and cover renditions embodying the essence of Texas Country.

Next will be the Americana and Indie Rock musical stylings of Susto from 6 to 7:30 p.m.  Originally from South Carolina, he now lives in Austin, and his music reflects his new southwest style.

This year’s headliner will be Jomo and the Possum Posse, playing from 8 to 9:30 p.m.  Self-described as “The Greatest Band in the World.  Possibly Ever”, the group combines a unique style of original music with comedy and honky-tonk.   The concert, along with the festival, are family-friendly and FREE to the public. Bring your lawn chair and enjoy live music and delicious food and refreshments from local restaurants and food trucks.

 

The Art Village will be open on Saturday, 10am-8pm and Sunday, 10am-2pm. Artists and Craftsmen from across Texas will be set up offering their unique handmade creations to the public.
