THE IDEA FUND GRANTEE PRESENTATIONS

Join Aurora Picture Show, DiverseWorks, and Project Row Houses on February 9 at 7 pm for a glimpse of some of the Houston area’s most exciting upcoming creative projects! This free virtual event features presentations by this year’s The Idea Fund grantees. Now in its 14th year, The Idea Fund supports Houston-area artists, curators, and collaboratives whose projects exemplify unconventional, interventionist, conceptual, entrepreneurial, participatory, or guerrilla artistic practices.

This regranting program is funded by The Andy Warhol Foundation for the Visual Arts, administered by a partnership of DiverseWorks, Project Row Houses, and Aurora Picture Show, and projects are selected by a panel of arts professionals and a past Idea Fund grant recipient. Round 14 jurors were Roya Amirsoleymani, Leslie Moody Castro, and Harrison Guy. For more information, please visit theideafund.org.
