The Art Museum of Southeast Texas is proud to present “Liz Gates: Pulling Threads”. This exhibition opens January 23, 2026 and is on view through April 12, 2026.
Liz Gates, a native of Houston, creates mixed media works of art centered around themes of gendered labor, self-manifestation, and feminist mother identity through the incorporation of found maternal materials, such as cloth diapers and tea towels. Gates transforms these common fabrics into whimsical structures representing the shared stories of the maternal and community.





Loc Huynh is a Vietnamese American artist whose work bridges personal history, cultural memory, and place.
“Beyond Sài Gòn” offers an intimate exploration of the contradictions and tensions of Vietnamese American life in Texas, viewed through the lenses of family, place, and material culture.



The Art Museum of Southeast Texas is pleased to present Margaret Scott Dobbins: Environments Imagined for its Winter 2026 Cafe Arts exhibition.
Growing up in Beaumont, Texas adjacent to a wooded area allowed her to develop an appreciation of nature and expand her imagination. During her studies at Lamar University, she continued her interest in composition and color. Discovering abstract expressionist art contributed to more experimentation with various art processes.
