Louise Hopkins Underwood Center for the Arts Review

The cornerstone of contemporary art in Lubbock, the LHUCA is an active collection of galleries with a black box theater. I recommend checking out it out during First Fridays if you haven't.

The burktech players helps kids with autism awareness month in April every year and my birthday yeah following by my Sinatra michael buble tribute friend mr keegan peck love is made for you and me and singing fly me to the moon

LCT's (Lubbock Community Theater) wonderful musicals deserve a better sound system.

Great venue to see art and culture in the Lubbock community! First Friday art trail is the best time to go!

Great facility and excellent art displays! A gem in Lubbock.

Community driven, art establishment. Installations vary frequently.

Had a great experience at the centre! Had one of my favourite date there and I would strongly recommend couples to have that same opportunity! I love the multiculture there! Some great artworks!

A centerpiece of Lubbock culture and a beacon of the local art community. Definitely check it out on the first Friday evening of the month, that's when most galleries display new art and the trolley runs you to them for free.

Beautiful building! Went to a wedding reception there and it was awesome!

While I enjoyed the art, I was there to see a performance by the Lubbock Community Theatre. The auditorium is not very large, so while all the seats are good, it can sell out quickly. The front-row seats are level with the stage; you won't be looking up if you choose them, so they are great for folks with visual difficulties. The front row is also wheelchair accessible.

The galleries are also good if, like me, you want to get in some walking during intermission. They are quite roomy, so combined with the smaller audience, I didn't have any problems getting in my 250 steps.

I have never been inside, but I am a photographer and my clients love to shoot here.

Attended the LHCA recently for their FIRST FRIDAY ART CRAWL. Highly recommended. Beautiful venue. Small, homey. They served beer and wine. There is a concert hall with music and separate halls with large contemporary art.

Love the First Friday Art Trail. They have great food trucks with many options to choose from, ranging from burgers, street tacos, and desserts. The displayed art was wonderful. The FFAT is a great event with plenty of exhibits to enjoy. Definately something for all age ranges.

Wonderful gallery that showcases and promotes local artists in Lubbock. It is the hub of the First Friday Art Trail (you guessed it, the first Friday evening of every month). Thousands of people come out, there are food trucks and live music. Super cool!

Its one of the only fun things to do in the entire city!

The LHUCA is an epicenter for arts and culture in West Texas. Because of one woman's drive to support the arts and Lubbock's response to fuel her passion, First Friday is now a regular attraction for hundreds and thousands of cultured Texans. Month by month LHUCA anchors the area that welcomes the Buddy Holly Center for the Performing Arts and Sciences and surround developments. Thank you, Louise Hopkins Underwood! Your kind spirit lives on in constant creativity.

Host your events here! This is the next "best neighborhood" in LBK.

We attended a musical here and loved it. Wonderful theatre space and we were able to browse a variety of local art before the show. Great space.

Always a lot of fun Contra Dancing at the LHUCA Icehouse!

Love it. Makes Lubbock feel like a city booming with culture.

This place is the hub of the arts in Lubbock, with lots of community events, especially the First Friday Arts Trail, where they always host an event. We've also been to poetry readings and other guest speakers there and it is really one of the nicest venues in the Hub City.

Really cool art gallery. Especially love the First Friday Art Trail, it's a must-see for any art lovers.

My boys and I thoroughly enjoyed all of the displays at the First Friday Art Trail. Lubbock has done well to support this gallery especially. It's one of my favorite places. The artists chosen to exhibit here are unique!

This place is the best! The clay options are wonderful, the wheels are brand new and there a lot of them. I love the artists who throw here because they are so helpful. I have never seen quite this environment at any other clay studio! You will not be disappointed.

The LHUCA was amazing! Loved the art exhibits as well as the food trucks!! I highly recommend!

The Icehouse is a nice space for events such as theatrical plays. We have attended several events here and have always had a good time. The space is wide open and should be able to fit any needs that you may have. We will be returning here again and again.

The 1st Friday art trail is the best place to be for art, music, and meeting people. Grab a bite to eat from a selection of food trucks, wine or beer for refreshment, deserts for those with a sweet tooth, and mingle with a great crowd.

I love visiting every month for First Friday Art Trail

The first Friday walks are a great date idea. With food trucks, friends, and new people to meet it'll keep your interest.
There are delightful art exhibits to view as well.

who doesn't love this place? very crowded during art trials but Lubbock should be proud to have this place.

This is the BEST place to find art in Lubbock, particularly during the First Friday Art Trail, held the first Friday of every month!

These folks throw the best events in Lubbock. I highly recommend checking them out, even beyond the First Friday Art Trail

Love creative arts unfortunately that day heavy rain not chatch opporunityto see all

Provide very good art for the public and Saturdays' lectures are great

I've been here many times for the Art Trail and Everytime I go the art is very nice and the atmosphere is open and cool. Overall the structure of the building as well as the quality of the art is worth the 10-20 minutes if you got time to spare.

The Firehouse theater is a great space. We saw Charlotte's Web, it was amazing!

Great venue for an intimate concert. Enjoy the LBK art as well.

Great place to see artwork. It includes food trucks for First Friday.

This is priority stop while enjoying " the first Friday art trail " the people who work here are super nice!

Used to have my art from school showcased here, love this place!

I love seeing art at the First Friday Art Trail here!

Wow, love this place! They always have something fun to do or something new to see between festivals, exhibits, plays, and more!

This is one of the places in town that make Lubbock great. The arts in this town are so underappreciated and LHUCA shines as a beacon for great art, food, music, and community. Love First Friday Art Trails. If you haven't been to one before you are missing out!

Well this certainly was a an experience I will never forget. I went to the camp and made a lot of new friends I will never forget and things I saw that I will never get out of my head. I went to the camp and it was great we got to do a lot of art and all of that fun stuff I highly recommend going to the camp if you don't have anything to do for the summer.

I really love the way this gallery is set up. The exposed brick walls, metal walls geometric windows and bright colors make the art stand out. There were many abstract pieces but also very stunning realistic pieces. They did well curating this place!

One of the best places in Lubbock, TX. The gallery is always offering fantastic events for the entire Lubbock community and one of their biggest events, the First Friday Art Trail, is the best going to do every first Friday of the month. I highly recommend visiting the LHUCA whenever you have the chance.

March is the beginning of Youth Art Month, my students were recognized for their wonderful accomplishment. The gallery display and reception was excellent as usual. This is a wonderful place to support the Arts.

I try to stop in at least once a month to check out the art exhibits.

We love the art trail and we are thankful to have an event that is family friendly and outdoors! Thank you LHUCA!

Nice gallery with local artists on display. Inside is the Firehouse theater for plays and musical performances. I even had a friend get married there. This is the center for the First Friday Art Trail that occurs the first friday of the month. Worth checking out if you like art.

Loved it......good family outing.....got lots of different kinds of food to drink......

Best place to be in Lubbock on the first Friday of each month!

I love LHUCA! it's a place where you can visit alternative realities and pretend to enjoy space candy (ceramic)

This expanding venue is a delight. The varied exhibitions display a variety of styles and artists as well as participatory activities.

Food trucks and a complimentary bus to nearby galleries, nice change of pace even if art isn't your thing (First Friday Art Trail)

First friday art trail !! Food trucks!! Music!! Best in Lubbock!!

It is a busy place for vendors, musicians and artists. Great place to hangout with family while enjoying Lubbock's talent.

Spent hours here during first Friday, there was something for children and adults alike. Large sketch canvases were placed in a hallway where visitors could use crayons, colored pencils and cut out magazine pieces to make a public art collage. It was so much fun! I was blown away by pieces from the professional artists, some pieces are 4x4 foot canvas with lots of intricate details! Come support your local exhibit :)

Many of the artists who show their work there are indoctrinated leftists but the gallery itself is great!

Went for First Friday art trail, but got there late, so didn't have enough time to see it all. Definitely go with enough time to see it all!
