Galveston was once a pirate stronghold, we should capitalize on that and have more pirate themed events. I get countless emails from friends that want to visit galveston and they ask "What is there to do on the island?",my only reply is "Well,we have alot of gay bars and the beach is ok,but that is about it."

"Mosaic at Texas A&M Galveston"
Review posted by: Islanders from Galveston, Jul 25, 2010

The three mosaics at the new Texas A&M building in Galveston by Dixie and her team are amazing. I am sure this show at the Galveston Arts Center will be great too. She is an incredible artist.
