WELCOME!
The Marfa Studio of Arts (MSA) is a 501(c)(3) non-profit arts
organization located in the small, West Texas town of Marfa
situated 60 miles from the U.S./Mexico border. Because of its
proximity to the border, Marfa enjoys a rich cultural heritage
that is inextricably linked to Mexico. In its more recent history,
Marfa has become home to some of the most sophisticated
contemporary arts institutions in the world and is the
beneficiary of a large artist population.
MSA was initially formed by artist Malinda Beeman in 1999 as a
unifier, using the language of art to bring disparate segments
of the local population together. Today, MSA is recognized for
providing high quality visual arts programming for local children
and youth through its special focus program, Studio In The
Elementary School (SITES.)
MSA is centrally located at 106 East San Antonio Street (Hwy.
90) in a renovated garage and gas station. The space includes
a 1000-square foot gallery that features children's art work and
a classroom that accomodates an afterschool art program,
vacation and summer arts programs for children and young
adults, as well as a variety of arts-based workshops that are
responsive to community needs.
We welcome you to the Marfa Studio of Arts!
