It all began with two monumental bronze longhorn sculptures, created by Robert Summers for The Cattle Drive, Pioneer Plaza, Dallas, standing guard over Main Plaza 2011-2012.

Then president of Hill Country Council for the Arts, Doris Perez, explained to the press, “The longhorns are on long-term loan from Texas Trees Foundation to introduce the idea of accessible art on display throughout Boerne.”

Following installation of the long-term temporary exhibit, the city of Boerne and Gateways committee partnered with Hill Country Council for the Arts to create a Public Art Master Plan; Hill Country Mile and Texas Treasures Fine Arts Gallery joined the alliance to create and execute the Art Alfresco competition.
