About The Festival

What is Palo Pinto Art Flute Festival?

The Palo Pinto Art, Music, & Flute Festival is the first annual event in Texas to feature musicians and players of the Native American Style Flute along with beautiful artwork from regional artists. 
Soothe your spirit - Become transported to an ancient land where the sun sets in warm hues of perfect stillness. Fluid melodies of soaring Native American flute bathed in reverberating shamanic atmospheres, keyboard textures and occasional nature sounds carry you to a deeply nourishing place of rest.  The result is deeply calming yet exciting music that is organic, spontaneous, serene and filled with spirit.  You know this music because it echoes in the canyons of your soul.
