Thomas moved back to Austin in 1948 after oil was discovered on her family’s ranchland. She traveled extensively for the rest of her life, donating art objects from her travels to university collections throughout the state. Thomas was the first woman appointed to Southwestern University’s executive board of trustees. She was honored for her philanthropic contributions to arts education with a theater building bearing her name in 1956. In Austin, she was a leading patron of the fine arts, serving on the boards of the Austin Arts Council, Austin Woman’s Club, Texas Fine Arts Association, and Austin Symphony.
