About Edom

Located in Van Zandt County, Edom is a tiny East Texas community of around 350 residents with a surprisingly rich creative culture. Founded in the 1850s, the town reinvented itself decades ago into an artist enclave known for its local potters, painters, and craftspeople. Today, you will find independent studios, garden nurseries, and cozy cafes scattered around the crossroads, alongside a popular annual arts festival that draws visitors from across the region. It is a quiet, scenic spot that appeals to anyone seeking rural living with an artsy, small-town character.
