Community Programs: Fresh Arts supports the local arts ecosystem through management of Arts District Houston (ADHou), the Space Taking Artist Residency (STAR), & Art on Tap. Our programming in ADHou, a state-designated cultural district & home to 500+ local artists, creates opportunities for artists to showcase their work & for the public to participate in arts activities outside of traditional institutions. STAR is an ongoing six-week opportunity for underrepresented local artists to utilize public space in innovative ways. STAR & ADHou provide more equality of opportunity for the citys diverse artist community & free, high-quality arts experiences for 330,000 residents & visitors annually. Art on Tap, our arts events newsletter, has 6,000+ subscribers & provides free listings for 15,000 local events annually.

Expenses: $330K

Skill Building Programs: Fresh Arts skill-building programs for creatives include in-person workshops; the eight-week Artist INC intensive seminar, artist-centric events; a career-focused podcast, & free online resources including an artist registry, downloadable toolkits, video workshops, artist opportunity board, & more. These programs support artists & arts collectives in cultivating audiences, fostering artistic growth, & building financial sustainability.
