Cross Roads by Carol Simon

Art aficionados, don’t miss your chance to view and shop thousands of art pieces from nearly 300 Houston artists at the Spring Biannual Art Stroll & Sale hosted by the Artists at Sawyer Yards on Sat., April 22, 2017 at Sawyer Yards. The art studios on Houston’s largest creative campus will be open - Silver Street Studios, Spring Street Studios, Summer Street Studios, The Silos and Winter Street Studios - so you can meet the artists and see a fantastic array of paintings, sculptures, ceramics, glass, mosaic, photography, mixed media and jewelry.

Start your stroll at Spring Street Studios from 3-5 p.m. for a pre-party and silent auction of one-of-a-kind birdhouse creations, benefiting the Houston Arboretum & Nature Center. Each was decorated by a Houston celebrity in partnership with a select Sawyer Yards artist.

Participating pairs include Mayor Sylvester Turner/Nicola Parente; Rod Ryan of the Buzz/Taft McWhorter; sculptor David Adickes/Justin Garcia; former Mayor Annise Parker/Michael Golden; artist Sharon Kopriva/Chris Silkwood; Heights realtor Bill Baldwin/Patrick Palmer; and KPRC2 Weatherman Frank Billingsley/April Murphy.

Additional benefit birdhouses, created by Sawyer Yards’ artists and priced at $100 each, will be offered throughout the evening at all the studios in support of the Houston Arboretum.

After the silent auction concludes, all studios open at 5 p.m. for the stroll and sale.
