Happy Thursday, Artists (and Families)! AND, before I continue, GO ASTROS! What an amazing win for our city and our athletes!
Carry on with your revelry and celebrate creativity at Hands-On Houston Family Festival this Saturday, November 4th from 11am to 3pm at Houston Center for Contemporary Craft! Art 1 students have the opportunity to get extra-credit with proof of participation (a selfie does just fine!).
