关于我们
Houston Arts Alliance (HAA) is the city’s designated, local arts and culture agency. We invest in Houston as a place to visit, live, work, honor, and create. We do this by: - providing grants to arts, culture, and community organizations and individual artists; - commissioning, conserving and promoting public art and enlivening public spaces; highlighting and celebrating the region’s rich folklife and diverse cultural traditions through programming and documentation; - helping arts and culture organizations develop business acumen; - engaging neighborhoods and civic partners to advance equity in and access to arts and culture; - furthering the arts and culture field through research and convenings; - funding, in part, cultural tourism initiatives; and - endeavoring to expand the overall creative economy. Ultimately, HAA works to improve the quality of life for Houstonians and visitors alike, while promoting Houston as a premier arts and culture destination. HAA is a nonprofit, public-private initiative whose primary partner is the City of Houston. Approximately 55% of HAA’s budget comes from Hotel Occupancy Tax and 30% from the City of Houston’s Percent for Art Program, which supports commissions of new civic art projects as well as conservation of existing artworks. The remaining 15% of HAA’s budget comes from private fundraising (grants/contributions/other revenue) for programs and special projects. HAA is committed to raising funds for only those projects and initiatives that the Arts Alliance is uniquely positioned to provide the community.

Houston Arts Alliance joins the city in mourning the passing of Congressman Sylvester Turner. Throughout his decades of public service—as a state representative, mayor, and community leader—he was a steadfast advocate for Houston and played a meaningful role in supporting the city’s arts and cultural sector. We extend our deepest condolences to his family, friends, and all who were impacted by his dedication to our city. His legacy of service and commitment to Houston will not be forgotten.

Houston, do want to engage with art, education, and sustainability? As one of the 13 grantees of the City of Houston Mayor’s Office of Cultural Affairs (MOCA)?and Houston Arts Alliance City's Initiative Round 3 Grantee for work furthering cultural tourism and resilience throughout the city of Houston, I'm launching a program. Art for Climate Resilience, it combines creative expression and food justice to empower Houston’s Third and Fifth Ward in addressing climate risks such as flooding, hurricanes, and food insecurity. This community arts-in-health program with a social participatory approach fusing art, education, and sustainability together is an endeavour I've been working towards for the past two years both in my professional, as a social impact founder of Virtual Oasis Tech, and through personal knowledge as I've up-skilled in arts-in-health, social impact, arts-in-medicine, climate knowledge, cooperative business, and public health. From Arts in Medicine Fellowship, National Organization for Arts in Health, Watson Institute, Urban Harvest, ClimArts, 4.0, Project Row Houses and ChangemakerXchange, I want to express gratitude to all the people and organizations who've informed this journey. Now, we get to work. I'm looking for strategic partners, investors/donors, volunteers, and contractors who'd like to support this art pilot program. Art for Climate Resilience is funded in part by the City of Houston through Houston Arts Alliance. There's a lot of impact to make and I want our community resilience to expand so that our communities truly thrive. Interested? ?? Email [email protected]. Know somebody within Houston who'd want to support? Tag them. Want to follow along? Follow RYN DEL PAPA LLC and Virtual Oasis Tech (and your's truly) for the updates. #ArtsinHealth #CommunityHealth #ClimateResilience #HoustonCommunity
