Haunted Impressions
GAC is collaborating with Kathleen Maca, local author, photographer, and historian, for an evening where history lingers in the shadows and stories echo through the streets. Begin with a twilight walking tour along the Strand, where you’ll hear haunting tales of Galveston’s most storied spirits; figures who once walked the same cobblestones, now remembered in whispers.
As your tour comes to a close at the steps of Galveston Arts Center, you’ll join your teaching artist in the studio to create an artwork that captures the night’s ghostly encounters. Using a historic photograph of the W.L. Moody Building, you’ll learn to transfer the image onto wood panel, then paint spectral figures into its windows; phantoms pulled from the stories still drifting through the island air.
