Compassionate Houston's Houston's Culture of Compassionate annual luncheon is less than three weeks away! Learn more and get your tickets here.

All ten nominated artists have accepted the invitation to attend Houston’s Culture of Compassion event in person.

Reserved the hour before the luncheon begins for you to meet and connect with the artists at The Briar Club from 10:30-11:30 a.m. Discover insights into their unique contribution to cultivating compassion within the Greater Houston community through their respective field of artistic expression (visual, musical, literary arts).

After you check in, get some light refreshments, visit with the artists in the ballroom, and network with friends and acquaintances until the luncheon begins.

That’s community and togetherness in action!
