Houston is one of the nation’s most diverse cities.  The 4-part Witness Series 2023 will explore the many profound experiences Communities of Color have to the Land and Waters of Southeast Texas and beyond.  Co-curated in partnership with artists from the Indigenous, African American, Latino, East Asian and South Asian communities, each Witness experience will bring communities together through the power of nature and art.  The series will provide historically under-served communities with greater access to nature-based opportunities.  Attendees will become co-authors, editors and observers as they take part in these participatory public art experiences centered around green spaces and environmental equity.

Join the Chinese Community Center to introduce a cultural lens to nature and art. Calligraphy offers an important channel for the appreciation of traditional culture and for arts education.  Artist, Brent Chiang will be at the event to write different styles of calligraphy while guests enjoy a calligraphy display. Additionally, beautiful and lively bonsai trees will be displayed as a water marble artist will showcase the mesmerizing practice at the event.
