Galeria Sibley • 103 W. Holland Ave., Alpine
Hours of operation: Friday and Saturday during Viva Big Bend: Noon–8 p.m.
See “More Viva Big Bend” (above) for artist appearances.
The art at Viva Big Bend isn’t limited to musical
performances — even by the performers themselves.
Several musicians playing the festival will showcase
their art at Galeria Sibley, 103 W. Holland Ave.
(Alpine). Visitors will enjoy the unique perspective
each artist offers. From the eclectic chainsaw art
of Doug Moreland to Matt Skinner’s landscape
paintings, the musicians demonstrate an artistic
sensibility that transcends — though may be
informed by — their music. Check “More Viva Big
Bend” (above) for artist appearances.

The Holland Hotel in Alpine will again serve as a hub of activity during Viva Big
Bend, including hosting the main box office for the festival starting Wednesday, July
24. Live music will be featured in the courtyard on Thursday, Friday and Saturday
afternoons. The performances are open to the public, the hotel bar is sure to be
hopping and the musicians will be rocking the patio of the historic venue.
102 N.W. 1st St., Hwy 90 W., Marathon
Friday, July 26 • 12:30–7 p.m.
Sophisticated and historic, the Gage, built in 1920,
captures the rich heritage of the cattle industry. Few
hotels offer a more distinctive experience of days
gone by.
A host of activities are planned for the
kids this year. Children’s author Wendy
Parnell will lead participants in a fun,
interactive reading of her books on
Texas music: Super Louella, inspired
by the music of Marcia Ball, and Musta
Notta Gotta Lotta Sleep Last Night, a
Joe Ely-inspired book named for one of
Ely’s song titles.
RSVP Required.

and the land that inspired them.
ArtWalk Alpine will be creating their muralin-a-weekend project during Viva Big Bend!
Join them in the lot adjacent to PrintCo (5th

celebrated muralist Stylle Read and a host
of volunteers create our homage to Mexican

a Poquito” calendar artwork).
