Visual & Performing Arts at Junction
The Texas Tech University Center at its Junction branch in Junction is
located on the south fork of the Llano River in the Hill Country of central
Texas. Nestled along the bottom land, juniper-covered hillsides of eroded
limestone join with native pecan groves to create diverse picturesque
areas for learning, recreation, and solitude within a campus comprising
411 acres.
A broad academic program is scheduled each summer at the Texas Tech University Center at Junction for both undergraduate and graduate students. Courses in Music and Theatre are offered often, and coursework in studio and education support a Master of Art Education degree program that has operated there each summer for many years. For information about courses offered during Intersession, Summer I, and Summer II sessions, scroll through the schedule.
Located at the "junction" of North and South Llano rivers, Junction is a town of 2600 persons and the county seat of Kimble County. Kimble County has over 300 miles of flowing streams, more than any other county in Texas, fed by the springs which are prevalent throughout the Edwards plateau region.
