WELCOME TO DOWNTOWN
ABILENE
The heart and soul of our thriving West Texas community, our downtown is rich in heritage dating back to 1881. Back in the early 1990s, our city was a national model for using the arts to spark economic growth and community development. Now, we’re experiencing a second renaissance that promises to be even more exciting and dynamic than the first. From new galleries and performance spaces to innovative arts programs and events, Downtown Abilene is bursting with creativity and energy.
