Art On The Avenue 2023

A celebration of creativity, community and compassion.
Join us to make a difference in the lives of those in need and support local artists.

Art on the Avenue is the biggest silent auction of local art in Houston, and a great place to buy art! Support our local artist community while benefiting Avenue's work to give Houstonians the opportunity to live in quality homes in healthy, vibrant and inclusive neighborhoods!

Since 1996, Art on the Avenue has generated over $2 million to support the mission of Avenue and over $700,000 to local artists.
