Local artist Paul Combs, most known for his Drawn by Fire collection, supporting the first responders of America, has recently been given a wonderful opportunity to share the love of art with even more through the brand-new Gallery 317, named so after its location at 317 West Butler Street in Bryan.
This historic home is being remodeled into an art gallery, studio space, and community art experience, with the goal being to add another destination location to the City of Bryan to encourage more city foot traffic and further economic growth.
This is the ninth forgivable loan that has been awarded thus far in order to “aid in transforming downtown Bryan buildings into thriving businesses.”
