“The Houston Art Car Parade has been a cornerstone event for the city for the past 33 years, celebrating the whimsical and outrageous, and providing a forum for artists, students, non-profits, and anyone with a spark of imagination to showcase their unique personal creativity,” said Orange Show Center for Visionary Art founder and chairman Marilyn Oshman. “We thank Mayor Turner and the Mayor’s Office of Cultural Affairs for the opportunity to present Houston Art Car Parade Weekend in a virtual capacity, and hope that in these uncertain times, our supporters and fans can tune in this weekend to revel in one of the many things that makes our city great.”

Throughout the weekend, the Orange Show Center for Visionary Art will also be accepting donations to assist the organization in continuing to produce the Houston Art Car Parade Weekend. Individuals can make a donation by texting ARTCAR to 44-321 and may make a donation of any amount.

In addition, the Houston Art Car Parade Website – www.thehoustonartcarparade.com – will have access to slide shows, videos, and other resources for the curious and inspired to learn more about art cars and the artists behind them.
