Changing Tides: The Legacy of Watermedia

Rio Bravo Legacy and Celebration

Changing Tides: The Legacy of Watermedia is a celebration of water media. Artists are invited to submit work in watercolor, acrylic and gouache that highlights the possibilities of the medium. Work that celebrates the tradition of water media or explores its future is encouraged.

Changing Tides will include a legacy showcase. The Rio Bravo Watercolorists (RBW) are invited to share work that commemorates their history and artistic achievements in the region. Only valid 2024 members of the RBW may participate in the legacy showcase.

About our museum

The International Museum of Art, a non-profit 501 (c) (3) organization, is located in the heart of El Paso’s historic Rio Grande District. The building, a Victorian-style mansion designed by architect Henry C. Trost, was owned by State Senator William Turney and his wife Iva, a prominent El Paso family who resided in the home from 1909 to 1939. Following Senator Turney’s death, Mrs. Turney donated the property to the City of El Paso. Honoring the wishes of the Senator and Mrs. Turney – that their former home always be used for the arts- the Turney mansion became the home of the International Museum of Art.
