Did You Know that the East End is a Cultural District?
In 2014, Texas Commission on the Arts designated Houston’s East End as a Texas cultural district. This designation means more opportunities for tourists and local residents to know the artistic value present in the East End community.
The East End Houston Cultural District boasts as one of the largest collections of outdoor murals in the city but encompasses more than just our beautiful murals. We are rich in history, entertainment and culinary traditions.
Hear from artist Jesse Sifuentes and from the East End District, Martin Chavez, Director of Operations & Constituent Service and Dan Joyce, Director of Public Affairs. Jesse will talk about his artwork in the East End and Dan and Martin will talk about the East End District’s current study for a Cultural Arts Strategic Plan and how they keep our community safe and colorful!
