Attire: Re/Mix & Match

Join Art League Houston for an extraordinary evening honoring the artists, cultural leaders, and patrons shaping the future of contemporary visual art in Texas. Co-chaired by Daisy Perez and Sarah Beth Wilson, this year's Re/Mix Gala recognizes four individuals whose artistic practices, leadership, stewardship, and advocacy have profoundly influenced Texas' cultural landscape. Together, we celebrate artistic innovation, strengthen community, and continue Art League Houston's nearly 80 year legacy of championing artists and expanding access to contemporary visual art.

More than a celebration, Re/Mix raises essential funds to sustain Art League Houston's artist-driven exhibitions, arts education programs, and free community initiatives, serving thousands of artists, students, and community members each year.
