Discover the powerful narratives of resilience and community through art and storytelling with HueMan:Shelter.
A series of captivating public art projects will be installed along the Milam Street corridor in Midtown Houston, each designed to disrupt how we perceive homelessness. Funded by a generous $1M grant from the Bloomberg Philanthropies Public Art Challenge, HueMan:Shelter will bring together artists and individuals experiencing homelessness to create powerful visual stories based on their lived experiences. It’s a social awareness campaign bolstering Houston’s successful interventions to address homelessness.
HueMan:Shelter is a heartfelt collaboration between the Mayor’s Office of Cultural Affairs and the Midtown Houston Cultural Arts and Entertainment District.
