It's a collective of artists that showcase history, culture, and Houston living. Typically it only showcases 5 house, the remaining house are used to be renovated or for living of families. It is quite hot outside during the events in July. So bring personal fan, or you can participate in their drive-by version of the exhibit. Being that exhibits rotate each year with different themes. It's hard to pinpoint every idea. But if you do come on opening day you can speak with the artist and their thought process in curating their live sculptures. This is a historical area in Houston for context it might not look the best for some of the hipsters who are used to neighborhood gentrification.
