Reflections: Bastrop County Through the Lens of Bob Parvin

This unique showcase invites visitors to reflect on the last four decades of Bastrop County through the photography of Bob Parvin, an award-winning Texas photographer whose longtime interests in Texas history, architecture, culture, and natural heritage find means for expression through his work. More than 2,000 of Parvin's images have been published and exhibited throughout Texas and the United States, including on Texas Highways and Texas Parks & Wildlife.
Parvin skillfully captures the essence of Bastrop, illustrating how the community has transformed while preserving the unique charm and character that defines its identity. This special exhibit is not just an ode to the history of Bastrop but a celebration of the community's resilience, growth, and cultural heritage. Whether you're a local resident or a curious visitor, the exhibition promises a thought-provoking and visually stunning experience.
