If you are planning a trip to the island this is a must see exhibit so make sure to carve out some time to checkout the Mardi Gras! Galveston magic and history.

Heading to the island for Mardi Gras 2026 may require a bigger suitcase. 😉💜💚💛

This might be my favorite one so far! The pelican appears truly regal as it rides gracefully atop the turtle.

Meet the artist behind the magic 🎨✨ We are thrilled to announce Ramin Nemat as our Mardi Gras! Galveston 2026 Poster Contest winner!

A Kurdish artist currently showcasing his work at Affaire D'Art Gallery in Galveston, Ramin is a master of many mediums. While he’s known locally for his stunning relief sculptures, his winning design brings the spirit of the celebration to life using acrylic paint, markers, and vibrant colors. Look closely and you’ll see the painting is made up of thousands of intricate dots—a beautiful nod to the garlands and beads that represent Mardi Gras! Galveston 📿💜💚💛

Truly a once in a lifetime experience happening today from 10-2 pm.
Come experience and learn about the pirate Jean Lafitte at the site of his actual home here on Galveston Island.

They're finally doing it! They've begun excavating the site of Jean Lafitte's Maison Rouge!

Tomorrow, Jan 10th from 10am to 2pm, researchers and TAMUG students will be holding an "open house" at 1417 Harbourside, the site of Lafitte's Maison Rouge. Come and tour the site, ask questions, and immerse yourself in the truth (and a little lore) about Galveston's most notorious pirate - Jean Lafitte.

Christmas in Galveston, TX 🎄☀️
Where the stockings are hung with care and the shorts are worn with confidence.
Santa’s sweating, the palm trees are thriving, and I’m wondering if sunscreen counts as winter skincare.
All I want for Christmas is… maybe a light breeze? 😎🌴🎅

🎄📸 Christmas Photo Shoot… or Attempted Chaos? 😂
Tried so hard to get Bailey and Jack to pose for some cute Christmas photos…
High-reward treats? ✔️
Festive Santa hats? ✔️
Perfect island winter day with perfect lighting? ✔️
Actual cooperation from Bailey and Jack? ❌😂
Instead of politely sitting like angels, they decided to be complete spazzes—Can’t focus on the camera, can’t focus on the treats, can’t focus on anything except causing absolute holiday mayhem.
But hey, nothing says “Merry Christmas” like two furry goofballs and 500 blurry photos. 🎁🎅😂
Wishing everyone a Merry Christmas from our chaotic little crew! ❤️✨
