The building on 518 was originally a residence and 514 was a hotel. Both have been completely updated and renovated to create the Uptown Blanco Art Center and Frame Shop.

The Art Center offers classes in Drawing, Painting and Pottery.


The Frame Shop is home to local artist Larry D. Fair “The Hill Country Bear”. The Frame shop offers Larry’s collected works as well as custom framing at affordable prices.
