The purpose of Fort Griffin State Historic Site is to manage and preserve the historic military fort built in 1867 so that future generations can enjoy and understand this period of Texas’ history. Fort Griffin also manages and conserves the land used for grazing for the official Texas State Longhorn herd, which has been located here since 1948.

The Center currently boasts more than 70 regional artist members and rents ten studios. Four galleries, one devoted to photography, present 24-28 admission-free exhibits of regional art and international photography to more than 26,000 individuals each year.
