HCCC presents a thriving and inclusive artist ecosystem with access to interactive spaces, robust networks, and the practical tools needed to succeed. Current offerings include our distinguished residency program, curated retail opportunities, collaborative resource mapping, skill-building workshops, and community events. These programs elevate handmade work, foster meaningful connections between buyers and sellers, and empower artists with the knowledge and support necessary to build sustainable creative practices.
The Artist Residency Program is designed to offer time and space for craft artists to focus on their creative work and interact with the public. The program supports emerging, mid-career, and established artists working in all craft media, including but not limited to clay, fiber, glass, metal, wood, and mixed media. Visitors have the unique opportunity to visit the artists’ studios and watch the artists at work. Interacting with the resident artists is a great way to learn about a range of craft processes and techniques. In turn, the artists receive a unique opportunity to gain exposure, make connections with the Houston community, and help educate the public about craft.
