Huntsville Shows off Artistic Side in Celebration of National Tourism Week
The Texas Commission on the Arts (TCA) and the Huntsville Cultural District celebrated U.S. Travel Rally Day on May 11, 2010 as part of the 27th annual National Travel and Tourism Week. The event, one of many held across Texas and the country, recognized the importance of tourism and the contributions of the hospitality industry to our economy. In 2008, travelers spent an estimated $60.6 billion in Texas, and travel spending directly supported 544,400 jobs.
The Huntsville Cultural District is just one of 12 official Texas Cultural Districts recently designated by TCA. Additional official Cultural Districts include: Abilene Cultural District, African American Cultural Heritage District, Austin, Dallas Arts District, Denison Cultural District, Fort Worth Cultural District, Houston Museum District, Houston Theater District, Lubbock Cultural District, McAllen Cultural District, San Angelo Historic City Center Cultural District and Winnsboro Cultural Arts District.
