📰 News we're reading

1. Angelo State University celebrates abandoned artwork with exhibit (gosanangelo.com) — San Angelo residents can explore a free Angelo State University exhibit of abandoned student artworks now through July 24 in Gallery 193 at the Carr Education-Fine Arts Building on Dena Drive. The show, “L’Abandon d’Oeuvres d’Art,” highlights unfinished or left-behind pieces that reveal the risks, experiments, and unseen effort behind students’ artistic growth.
   

2. Tom Green County Dumps Downtown TIRZ (sanangelolive.com) — Tom Green County has voted unanimously to pull out of the downtown San Angelo TIRZ, keeping about $1.15 million a year in county coffers instead of sending it to the city-managed revitalization fund. The move won’t dissolve the zone, but it will shrink available grant money for building upgrades and infrastructure along key corridors like Chadbourne and Bryant, even as the city plans to keep participating.
   

3. Gordon Adds Former San Angelo Colts Manager, Central Coach to Staff (sanangelolive.com) — Three new coaches at tiny Gordon High School bring strong ties to San Angelo sports, including a former San Angelo Colts manager and a longtime Central boys basketball coach. Their hiring bolsters an already dominant Gordon program and underscores how local coaching talent from Tom Green County continues to shape high school athletics across Texas.
   

4. TX TV meteorologist joins NWS in Alaska (blogspot.com) — Viewers in the San Angelo area may remember meteorologist Britton Musall, who recently left FOX West Texas KIDY-KXVA, which serves San Angelo and Abilene, to join the National Weather Service in Juneau, Alaska. The story traces his path from Texas A&M to forecasting for more than 30 West Texas counties before heading north.
