Since its founding in 2008, BOX 13 has played a key role in Houston’s dynamic art scene, thanks to the dedicated efforts of its artist members, past and current. From constructing studio walls to assisting artists with gallery installations, the work of past and present members has been instrumental in ensuring the continued success of this unique arts hub. With 22 local artists currently utilizing our affordable studio spaces, and over 40 artists set to showcase their work this year, BOX 13 remains a vital platform for artistic expression and innovation.
The fundraiser will feature two key components: the “Empty BOX” Silent Auction, and the Poor Man’s Raffle. The Silent Auction will provide attendees with the opportunity to acquire artwork donated by talented local, national, and international artists, making it a perfect opportunity to enhance any art collection. Meanwhile, the Poor Man’s Raffle offers a chance to win artwork by BOX 13’s current Resident Artists.
Proceeds from both the Silent Auction and Raffle will go directly toward supporting BOX 13’s mission to promote the creation and advancement of experimental contemporary art. Proceeds from the auction and raffle will directly support BOX 13’s mission to promote and advance contemporary art and maintain and improve the building.
