ArtCrawl Houston

ArtCrawl 2010 was for TWO days
at The Hardy & Nance Street Studios!

With a total of 53 Artists showing, the dog & pony show here at Hardy & Nance Street was the largest gathering of talent anywhere on the ArtCrawl. Painters, sculptors, poster artists, fabric artists, photographers of many different styles & techniques, jewelry designers, 3D artists, video artists and more...all under one big roof. Take a look at the list below. You can click their names to visit their websites. The showing at Hardy & Nance Street included internationally recognized and collected artists, established working professionals and some of the areas' hottest, young up and comers. If you never thought of Houston as an "Art City"...we hope The 'Crawl changed that. Scroll down further for a quick sampling of their amazing work.

And this year we featured some very special treats...
The Fine Art of Live Jazz in the Gallery!

Jazz Vibes legend Harry Sheppard was joined by Bob Chadwick, one of the finest Jazz flute players alive. Together they are nothing short of amazing. If you are a hard core Jazz fan, you have seen Harry's name on hundreds of recordings. He started out with The Benny Goodman Orchestra and has played or recorded with just about every major player in the industry from Billie Holiday to Willie Nelson. And he is still rockin'!
Bob is a Houston boy who plays world-class jazz flutes (he owns a few hundred and can blow you away with any one of them - from penny flutes to seven-foot tall custom-builts and even Mayan & Pan flutes).
