A cavalcade of talented performers -- including LeAnn Rimes, Marin Morris, Shoji Tabuchi, Blake Shelton, Lou Diamond Phillips, Persis Forster, Morgan Woodward, and Lee Ann Womack -- began their careers on Downtown Arlington stages. Even 16-time Grammy Award winning artist Kirk Franklin has his recording studio in Downtown.

Downtown’s visual arts scene is anchored by renowned exhibitions at the Arlington Museum of Art, plus galleries, festivals, a growing number of colorful murals and other public art installations throughout the district. Meanwhile, historical markers, iconography, exhibitions and Knapp Heritage Park invite visitors to interact with the city’s past.

More and more, Downtown is also attracting the next generation of the creative class including graphic designers, recording artists, photographers, video and multi-media producers, and other “artrepreneurs” who are bringing new energy and ideas to Arlington.

As a way to spotlight the district’s long-standing history of nurturing creative talent, Downtown Arlington will be hosting the inaugural Americana Trax Fest in June 2021. A celebration of all things Americana, the multi-day and multi-venue festival will feature a variety of music genres including gospel, country and bluegrass, an arts and collectible fair, classic car show, arts lectures and demonstrations and more.

Within Downtown, there’s a fun and quirky collection of locallyowned retail shops ranging from antiques, local art, exclusive women’s and men’s clothing, vintage vinyl, memorabilia and more.

In addition, our Public Policy Committee regularly has elected hosts various events throughout the year focusing on legislation and government relations.

ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT

In the last 15 years, Texas has been ranked number one by Site Selection Magazine for success in bringing new businesses to the state.

The Greater Arlington Chamber of Commerce supports maintaining all of the economic development tools currently available to attract and retain businesses. We also work to bring businesses to the table with all levels of government ensuring projects get

The Greater Arlington Chamber is also a member of the Metro Eight Chambers of Commerce. These are the Chambers representing business interests in the eight largest cities in Texas. Tarrant County is more conservative than most metropolitan areas in Texas and so are the interests of our business owners. Notwithstanding, the Metro Eight Chambers can lobby for three or four areas of concern that all business interests in the state have in common. When the Metro Eight speaks with one voice we represent approximately 12,500 businesses with 300,000+ employees.

The Greater Arlington Chamber is also a member of the North Texas Commission, a group of more than 200 government, civic and business entities promoting the development of the 11-county region.

Workforce development begins with early childhood education. During the last Texas legislative session, the Chamber voiced all school districts across the state. House Bill 3 (HB3), a Legislature in 2019, ultimately passed without a single No

vote and includes the Pre-K funding along with more money for Texas classrooms, increases teacher compensation, reduces recapture and cuts local property taxes for Texas taxpayers. HB 3 is one of the most transformative Texas education bills in recent history. The bill is the result of months of work beginning with the Texas Commission on Public School Finance and culminating in bipartisan work between the members of the Texas House and Senate. The Chamber supports fully funding HB3 in the coming legislative session.

TRANSPORTATION & INFRASTRUCTURE

Moving employees and goods and services around is critical to the success of business. The Greater Arlington Chamber supports policies that ensure adequate funding for transportation infrastructure to maintain congestion at the current level or reduce it.

The Greater Arlington Chamber supports policies and spending that encourages growth in tourism and convention business in Texas.

HEALTHCARE

The Greater Arlington area has excellent healthcare infrastructure including a public health system with good coverage throughout the county. Healthcare infrastructure is one of the critical elements considered by people and businesses when evaluating relocation. The Greater Arlington Chamber supports creative and technology based approaches to improving healthcare in the state.

To maintain the “Texas Miracle” economic success, we recognize the need to create an infrastructure that supports our needs today and for generations to come.
