Women in the Arts Committee

The goal of the Women in the Arts Committee, a new committee approved at the 2017 Houston convention, is to encourage involvement in all aspects of the arts by members of TSO. It is a part of the Educational Excellence Committee. Presently, the WIA committee sponsors two events

STAR (Spectacular Texas Arts Retreat)
Creative Arts Exhibit

STAR, on Martin Luther King weekend each year at Camp Allen in Navasota, requires no specific skills to attend. Members enjoy genuine spiritual fellowship and personal growth in a beautiful, relaxing setting while eating healthy, good food. TSO’s Creative Arts Exhibit at state conventions features original pieces of decorative and traditional art from all genres.
