Midland is changing
Our community is growing, families are planting roots, and the next generation is hungry for creativity, belonging, and experiences that inspire.
But for too long, West Texas has lacked a centralized home for the arts — a space where people create, gather, learn, and build something meaningful together.
The Founders Funders Circle is the group of people who will change that.
A Vision Bigger Than a Crawl
Midland Art Crawl began as a grassroots event to bring art into everyday life.
But what’s happening now is something deeper.
- A movement.
- A shift in culture.
- A belief that Midland deserves more.
- More art.
- More community.
- More beauty.
- More creativity.
- More reasons for people to feel proud of the place they call home.

Why This Matters
- It elevates quality of life.
- It attracts and retains talent.
- It creates economic diversification.
- It supports local businesses.
- It inspires young people.
- It gives families connection points outside of work and school.
- It builds civic pride.
West Texas is full of potential — but potential becomes impact only when people choose to invest. That’s what this group is about.
Fueling the infrastructure that creativity needs to thrive.
