Project Row Houses

Comment on Facebook

Project Row Houses is a neighborhood based art and cultural organization located in Houston's Third Ward. PRH was established in 1993 on a site of 22 abandoned shotgun houses (c. 1930) to connect the work of artists with the revitalization of our community. Inspired by the work of African-American artist Dr. John Biggers who celebrated the social significance of the shotgun house house community in his paintings.

"...art work that both engages the community... and celebrates African-American history and culture."
