Third Ward Cultural District
The Third Ward Cultural District, officially created by the Texas Commission on the Arts in September 2020, supports Third Ward residents by activating spaces of healing and creating a haven for the artists most in need of a place to feel safe to create and thrive. Just as important, the Cultural District creates opportunities for visitors from across town and across the globe to participate in this work and connect with the community. In this moment, the power of art and culture to heal communities and amplify the voices of those silenced is of the highest importance. Project Row Houses is glad to serve as the management entity for the Cultural District.
