#TexasArtistsStrong, a Pop-up Exhibition + Fundraiser
Saturday, September 9, 2017
2:00-7:00pm
@ Spring Street Studios
In response to the growing number of Texas artists impacted by Hurricane Harvey’s devastation and the local artist community that seeks to support them, Fresh Arts and Spring Street Studios invites the public to a disaster relief exhibition and fundraiser at Spring Street Studios on Saturday, Sept. 9th, 2017. Cocktails and light bites from 2 to 7pm.
The one-day only exhibition will feature artwork for sale by artists from Houston and surrounding areas, with proceeds benefiting the Immediate Disaster Relief Fund for Texas Artists. 100% of proceeds raised will be given to individual artists impacted by the disaster to help them preserve work, rebuild studio and live/work spaces, purchase supplies and continue with their creative missions.
All artwork is for sale and available to take home the same day. This event is free and open to the public and held in conjunction with Spring Street Studio’s 2nd Saturday Open Studios event.
Many thanks to the artists of Spring Street Studios for donating their exhibition hallways and providing volunteer assistance.
If you are unable to attend, please consider donating directly to the Immediate Disaster Relief Fund for Texas Artists here [2].
