Galveston Historical Foundation and Southwestern Paint Company

1 day ago

At the 1892 Bishop’s Palace, Galveston Historical Foundation knew we wanted the painted exterior surfaces to match the color captured in historic reference photos we studied. We conducted a paint analysis, which helped us realize the color was much darker than the cream color many had come to identify with the Bishop’s Palace. Honoring the design architect Nicholas Clayton envisioned would mean opting for a rich, deep red color. So that’s exactly what we did.When it was time to repaint those sections this year, we went back to the team who originally helped us pinpoint the red we needed: Southwestern Paint.We are so grateful to Jackie Gomez and the entire Southwestern Paint team. We love this local Galveston business, which has served the Houston region with expertise and honesty for more than 75 years. In addition to patiently helping us develop the perfect color, Southwestern Paint donated the Benjamin Moore paint we used.Speaking of Benjamin Moore: huge thanks to this company, whose commitment to quality helps us carry out our mission.Enjoy this video, which explains the process so well. We especially love this quote from Jackie:“Galveston is known for its history. So having us be a part of that means everything not only to us, but to our customers as well.” ✨A lagniappe for our friends: Did you know Galveston Historical Foundation members receive 30% off paint purchases from Southwestern Paint? 🙏 You can learn more about membership at galvestonhistory.org/support/ghf-membership. #benjaminmoore #benjaminmoorepaint #southwesternpaint #historicpreservation #galvestonhistory ...
