Launching this year, a new annual initiative titled “Spotlight On…” will feature a different city every year with a robust cohort of ADAA member galleries. This year’s focus will be the vibrant arts community of Houston, Texas. “Spotlight On…Houston” serves as a platform for an in-depth exploration of the city’s distinctive art scene, bringing its foremost artists, curators, museum directors, dealers, cultural advocates, and collectors together to highlight the innovative work taking place in its institutions, alternative art spaces, and galleries.

This convening of Houston collectors at the 2024 edition of The Art Show explores the landscape of arts philanthropy and its evolution both in the city and beyond. Enhancing the inaugural “Spotlight On…” program, this assembly of esteemed patrons highlights the influential network of Houston collectors while delving into the history of art and connoisseurship in the city, with an eye towards the future.
