Angelina Beautiful/Clean

We wrapped up the month of May with our beautification award winner of the month…. 🥁🥁🥁

The Lufkin/Angelina County Chamber of Commerce! Not only do they have a beautiful building but they bring the community together helping businesses both small and large, non profits, and citizens stay connected and engaged. We are lucky enough to be able to work alongside them. Their hallways hold our tree city usa awards, our Governer’s Achievement awards, and more importantly they hold a gathering place for people of all walks of life to come together. That’s where the true magic happens!

Know a business who goes the extra mile? Nominate them for the AB/C beautification award and thank you to Integra Insurance for allowing us to shine a spotlight on community rockstars! ✨

We couldn’t be happier to see some more greenery going in our vibrant downtown!

Thank you to the Lufkin Daily News for this wonderful story that truly highlights all the collaboration that all start with a small idea. We are proud to play a part in that collaboration! 💚

YAY for our friends at Lufkin Creative!!

Big news for the future of arts and culture in Angelina County! 🙌🎉

Today, the Angelina County Commissioners Court officially approved a resolution supporting Lufkin Creative’s initiative to pursue designation as a Cultural District through the Texas Commission on the Arts. This is a huge step forward in strengthening our creative community, supporting local artists, encouraging tourism, and continuing to invest in the vibrancy of our region. 🌲

We are incredibly grateful for the support and partnership of our county leaders as we work toward building a stronger, more connected creative economy for East Texas.

This designation has the potential to create lasting impact — not just for the arts, but for local businesses, downtown development, community pride, and future generations.

The momentum is building, and we’re excited for what’s ahead. 🎨✨

We are just beaming with pride to see all those smiling faces out there! Thank you Love Lufkin for this beautiful post we could not have said it better ourselves.

Without the work from each partner, the generosity of Shepherd Street Yoga, and assistance from both the city, county, and the community we would not be able to do the things we do! 🌳

These small acts are how we keep our community thriving one day at a time!
