The Texas Federation of Women's Clubs, the headquarters for the state-wide organization, is a lovely mansion at the corner of 24th Street and San Gabriel.

Completed in 1931, it contains the largest ballroom of its kind in central Texas with a floor of over 4,000 s.f. of polished oak and a 30 ft. ceiling. The entire building can be leased for special occasions. Swing dance events happen here weekly on Tuesday and Thursday evenings. For more information, see the TravelGoat movie: Four on the Floor Dance.

Inside the TFWC, you can see interesting aspects of the organization. There are antiques throughout, commemorative plaques and artwork. There is a photo portrait wall displaying the past presidents of the TFWC and a glass case featuring dolls, in adult 'Barbie-style' fashion, showing the various Texan women of the past and their chosen elegant attire.
