WITTLIFF CELEBRATION: Crowd gathers to commemorate 35th anniversary of The Wittliff Collections

AUSTIN — John Steinbeck once wrote, “Texas is a state of mind.” Throw in elements of the great southwest as expressed through writers, photographers, filmmakers and singer/ songwriters and look no further than The Wittliff Collections on the San Marcos Campus of Texas State University and experience the region’s spirit and culture.

On Thursday, supporters of the Wittliff Collections gathered at Austin City Limits Live to pay homage to the late Bill Wittliff, honor Sally Wittliff, and raise funds for the further expansion of its collections.
