Description
Art United Methodist Church (Art, Texas) sits in the picturesque Texas Hill Country. Spring blankets the rural church grounds in Texas bluebonnets. Organized in 1856 by German immigrants Art Methodist held all worship services in German until 1927. The present stone church dates to 1890--replacing earlier church structures built in 1858 (log structure) and 1875 (stone church and school). Art's two Methodist churches united in 1939.
The early German settlement gave way to growing nearby towns. Today the Mason County town consists of the church, a post office, and a couple of buildings. Recent census data counted 18 residents. German settlers populated the Texas Hill Country in the 1800s. Remnants of Texas-German culture remain in the area.
