Supporting the arts sends a powerful message to your network about commitment to community and creativity. Sponsorship helps promote your brand, business, or personal interest while supporting vibrant educational programs that enliven Houston, educate children, and put craft techniques and materials in the public eye.

Designing Motherhood is the first exhibition of its kind to consider the entire arc of human reproduction through a design lens. The exhibition originated in Philadelphia at the Mütter Museum at The College of Physicians of Philadelphia and the Center for Architecture and Design.
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.
Event-specific gifts help HCCC reach fundraising goals that support arts education in our community. Unique corporate-identity partnerships build visibility and client relationships around a choice of family-focused or special events.
