Find Your Heart on the Jefferson Highway in Greenville, TX: Part 3 - Stage & Style

Welcome back to Day 3 of our 4-day special series, "Find Your Heart in Greenville," part of the Historic Jefferson Highway Podcast.

This series is the result of our personal visit back in the fall of 2025, a trip we agreed to after meeting the incredible Stacey Foley at the Jefferson Highway Conference in McAlester, Oklahoma, earlier that summer.

Today, we are talking Style and Stage. Greenville has transformed its historic downtown into a bustling entertainment district. We stroll through the downtown and enjoy the interactive Hearts of Hunt County Art Trail, and the incredible murals—specifically "A Legacy of Performance," which showcases all the legends who have played here.

We take you inside the Greenville Municipal Auditorium (GMA), a national treasure that has completed a multimillion-dollar renovation, making it a state-of-the-art venue with sound systems rivaling major arenas. Hear about the backstory of this renovation in our first podcast with Micah McBay and Stacey Foley (linked below).

Then, we take you inside The Texan Theater, owned by Barbara Horan. It is truly a house concert experience. From the Houdini posters found in the walls to the Skybox VIP seating, it is where legends like Billy Bob Thornton and Lukas Nelson come to play for an intimate crowd.

Finally, we close the show at Rebel Mary’s Boutique. Tammy Harris is a former nurse turned boutique owner who believes fashion is about confidence. We’re talking about her incredible upcycled silk pieces and the "Community over Competition" spirit that defines Greenville’s small businesses.
