Other than the outdoor sculptures of The Woodlands, TWHSAT’s collection of 56 artworks are the only public permanent collection of art in The Woodlands.

The organization’s goal is to have 100 arts supporters make an annual donation to support its cause through its “One Hundred Friends of Art” program. This money will be directly applied to the framing, lighting, and conservation of the artworks. Membership is tax deductible and starts as low as $10.

The Woodlands High School Art Trust, (TWHSAT) a 501(c)3 organization, was established in 2011 to help maintain, conserve, and display the student-selected, student-purchased collection of established artists at The Woodlands High School. The vision for the TWHSAT is to see the art collection grow each year and to have it extend through the hallways of the high school. Students use funds from their Homecoming Dance to purchase the art works. TWHSAT fundraises for the preservation and permanent display of the art works.
