The Houston Art Car Parade has been a yearly tradition since 1988 and one of the city's most festive and eclectic celebrations of artists in the community. Every year the much anticipated event is sandwiched into a fun weekend where art cars can be seen cruising all around Houston’s busy streets.
Last year the parade and all of the surrounding events were canceled, but this year, true to their mission to encourage creative self-expression, The Orange Show Center for Visionary Art found a new and adaptive way to do things.
The Art Car Experience will take place the weekend of May 14-16 with daytime and nighttime events planned to allow Houston to celebrate and engage with the art cars and celebrate Houston. For those looking to get an early start on the festivities, Houston photographer Emily Jaschke will host an opening for her solo photo exhibit,
