Established in 1972, the Art Colony Association, Inc. (ACA) is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization dedicated to producing high-quality art festivals and events to provide financial support to local nonprofits. Art Colony Association provides unique art experiences and education for the greater Houston community by bringing diverse artists to urban Bayou City Art Festivals and supports local nonprofit organizations.

For almost five decades, Bayou City Art Festival has helped thousands of Houstonians create fond memories. In order for Bayou City Art Festival to continue its mission for another 50 years, it has launched Save Our Art — One Passion. One Purpose. One Community — a fundraising campaign in partnership with the City of Houston to support the arts and local nonprofit partners. Individuals and corporations can ensure the Bayou City Art Festival’s return to Memorial Park and downtown Houston and its programming in the community by committing to donate and participating in the many upcoming fundraising events.
