The Texas Society of Sculptors (TSOS) is a sculptors' guild based in Austin, Texas, and was chartered in 1971 by the State of Texas as a non-profit organization. Objectives of the society include educating the public about sculpture and the many media of this art form, promoting the work of sculptors, and serving as a liaison between sculptors everywhere. Although Texas-based, membership is open to sculptors and sculpture lovers anywhere in the United States. TSOS also offers several News options to inform members of sculptors' activities, sculpture events, and professional opportunities.
TSOS consists of over 170 members. Although not all members are sculptors, those who are work in a variety of mediums, including terra-cotta, bronze, stone, concrete, and mixed media. Styles range from classical to nonobjective. Other members are bronze casting foundries, students, and other art lovers. You will be able to see some of the sculpture created by our exhibiting members on this site.
