  • Robert Hodge | Destroy and Rebuild
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE MEDIA CONTACT ALWAYS FRESH Connie McAllister Director of Community Engagement ALWAYS FREE Tel 713 284 8255 [email protected] The Contemporary Arts Museum Houston is pleased to present Destroy and Rebuild, a solo exhibition featuring work by Houston- based artist Robert Hodge. Robert Hodge: Destroy and Rebuild October 3, 2014 – January 4, 2015 Opening Reception Friday, October 3 | 6:30-9PM Artist Walk-Through Friday, October 3 | 7PM HOUSTON, TX (September 25, 2014)— Robert Hodge, The Great Electric Show and Dance, 2013. Mixed media on The Contemporary Arts Museum reclaimed paper. 41 x 54 inches. Courtesy the artist Houston is pleased to present work by Houston-based artist Robert Hodge. A musician and visual artist, Hodge has been involved in the city's art scene since the late 1990s. His practice has expanded to include site-specific sculpture that provides communities with a place to gather and interact. Robert Hodge: Destroy and Rebuild features fifteen paintings from the past two years, more than half of which were created specifically for this presentation. It is the artist’s first solo museum exhibition. As a visual artist, Hodge has been in pursuit of the recovery of cultural and political icons that have been lost to a fast-paced and ever-changing society. Trained in printmaking, Hodge has used strategies employed by graphic designers to convey his messages to combat social and political amnesia. Over the past five years, the artist has literally taken the paper—billboards, posters, post bills—that clutters the streets of his neighborhood in Houston's historic Third Ward and has converted it into material for his own work.

  • Children's Museum of Houston Organizational Profile the Mission
    Children’s Museum of Houston Organizational Profile The Mission and History of the Children’s Museum The Museum transforms communities through innovative, child-centered learning, achieving this goal by 1) fostering the development of the region’s significant child population; 2) increasing and supporting parents’ engagement in their children’s learning; 3) providing learning experiences that reinforce and supplement school classroom instruction; 4) reducing the effects of poverty on learning; 5) serving a multicultural, multilingual population; and 6) promoting workforce preparedness through the development of 21st century learning skills. CMH was founded in 1980 by parents responding to a community-wide need for interdisciplinary and participatory educational exhibits and programs for children from birth through twelve. The first exhibit was presented in 1984, with operations initiated at a leased facility in 1985. A $10 million capital campaign raised the funds needed to open the Museum’s permanent home in Houston’s Museum District in 1992. A second capital/endowment campaign raised $35 million to enlarge the Museum’s facilities and expand programming regionally and nationally, with expansion completed in 2009 featuring thirteen new exhibits, an enhanced Parent Resource Library that serves as a Houston Public Library branch, and the outreach resources of the Institute for Family Learning. A third capital campaign raised $4 million for a sister museum opened in Fort Bend in 2016. An additional $3 million has been raised since 20145 to grow the endowment’s corpus. The Museum at 1500 Binz The Museum hosts thirteen exhibits, a branch of the Houston Public Library, a performing arts series, and bilingual programming that changes with every WonderWeek theme.

Brown HPO FILE NO: 13PL117 APPLICANT: Randy Pace DATE ACCEPTED: 09/05/2013 LOCATION: 400 Cordell Street – Brooke Smith Addition HAHC HEARING: 09/12/2013 SITE INFORMATION Lot 6, Block 26, Brooke Smith Addition, City of Houston, Harris County, Texas.

TYPE OF APPROVAL REQUESTED: Landmark and Protected Landmark Designation HISTORY AND SIGNIFICANCE SUMMARY The Whitaker-Graliano-Brown House is located at 400 Cordell Street in the Brooke Smith Addition. It was built in 1918 in the bungalow style but features unusual neo-classical elements. It was built for Lee Roy Whitaker, who was part of the working class attracted to the affordable and desirable location of the newly developed neighborhood. The house was subsequently owned for three decades by the Graliano family who were Italian immigrants to the United States. Michael K. Brown, the collection curator for Bayou Bend, the former home of Miss Ima Hogg, also owned the home for over 30 years. Brooke Smith Addition was platted in 1905 and expanded with a second phase that was platted in 1906 by Brooke Smith of Brownwood, Texas. Smith was a pioneer Brownwood merchant and banker, and mayor, whose investments included land, oil and mining throughout Texas. In 2004 a historical marker was erected by the Texas Historical Commission to honor Brooke Smith in Brownwood, Texas. The Whitaker-Graliano-Brown House meets criteria 1, 3, 4, 5 and 6 for Landmark and Protected Landmark Designation.

  • Guide to Houston's Best Neighborhoods
    GUIDE TO HOUSTON’S BEST NEIGHBORHOODS Paige Martin Broker Associate Keller Williams Realty 713-384-5177 [email protected] Benefits Of Buying A Home In Houston 1. Houston homeownership builds wealth over time. Houston is the #1 US city for job creation. Long-term, property values increase as employment grows in the area. Six “Close In” Houston neighborhoods posted at least 10% appreciation per year over the past few years. 2. You build equity every month. Equity is the amount of money you can sell a house for minus what you still owe on it. Every mortgage payment reduces the amount you owe, and increases your equity and investment. 3. You receive tax benefits. The tax code allows homeowners to deduct home-related expenses from their income tax obligations like: mortgage interest, closing cost deductions, and interest on home equity loans. Property tax is also deductible for income tax purposes. Houston homeowners also have Homestead Exemptions. 4. Owning real estate allows you to diversify your investment portfolio. Houston has 5.9 million people in the MSA (Metropolitan Statistical Area) as of the last census. Houston’s Area Council expects this to grow to around 7.6 million by 2025. Owning real estate poised to take advantage of this growth trend can offer value for your portfolio. 5. Buying now allows you to take advantage of record-low mortgage rates. Interest rates are at historic lows: below 4% for a 30-year, fixed-rate mortgage and below 3.25% for a 15-year term. The Fed has committed unprecedented capital to reducing interest rates, benefiting current homebuyers and homeowners looking to refinance.
