I think that some one with influential standing in the Victoria community should  put together a weekend get together at deleon plaza called "Art in the park " .For all starving artist's to display their work . If it is successful than maybe have it an annual event. Market days is not enough we need more at the plaza on the weekend during the summer. it's dead at the plaza most of the year, lets livin' it up a bit there are some young people left in Victoria  over the age of  forty , you do know that right

I think that's a great idea. You may also want to run the idea by some of the local art organizations or even the Chamber of Commerce. Maybe they could help you get it going.

Victoria Art League: 572-0825

Victoria Regional Museum Association: 575-8227

Victoria Chamber of Commerce: 573-5277

Victoria College Fine Arts Department: 582-2573

Good idea, Roddy. Why don't YOU be that influential person? Call parks and rec director Doug Cochran at the City and discuss this with him. If you want this bad enough, don't wait for someone else. Make it happen.
