Hot Rods, Harleys & Fine Art, Oh My!
Friday, July 22, 2005Houston Heights- Friday, July 22, 2005- August 6th at the Yale Street
Arts Market may look more like an auto show than an open-air arts
market. Spacetaker - The Essential Houston Culture Guide will be
joining artists from all over the Houston area at the next First
Saturday event in the Houston Heights. Spacetaker is a Texas
non-profit dedicated to promoting the Houston Cultural Arts. Visitors
can pick up information on the local arts; make a donation and sign up
for their newsletter. A Classic Muscle Car: the 1970 AMX and a new
Harley Davidson will also be on display! Visit Spacetaker on the web
at
www.Spacetaker.orgWinter Street Studio artists will be represented in a tent for the
third month in a row. All mediums of art are represented in the Winter
Street tent. A favorite is Bill Swann's massive hand crafted sundial.
A talented group of artists from North Houston calling themselves
Diversionists will also be in attendance with an incredibly 'diverse'
mix of art. Original paintings, handcrafted jewelry, sculpture and
fiber arts are available at each month's art market by both
established and emerging artists.
The Historic Heights First Saturday Trolley Tours proved quite popular
in July with standing room only on several passes through the historic
neighborhood. The two vintage-looking Metro Trolleys make an 8-stop
circuit around the Heights with an informative history tour and
pointers on local events in the neighborhood.
The Trolley's run non-stop from Noon to 4:30pm and is free.
Informative flyers are available at area stores and the information
