    Details at Lawndale tonight

    Artadia is looking for a few great Houston artists

    Attention Houston artists: Artadia wants you.

    Founded in 1997 by investment banker and art collector Christopher E. Vroom, Artadia: The Fund for Art and Dialoque gives cash awards to artists in cities with active arts communities, such as Boston, Chicago, San Francisco, Atlanta and Houston. Since its inception, $2 million has been given in cash awards.

    Artadia's Executive Director Lila Kanner and Program Manager Ute Zimmermann will be at Lawndale Art Center tonight at 6 p.m. to answer questions about the awards program. Online applications close on March 1. Individual artists and collectives can apply and artists at any stage in their career are considered.

    "This is a great chance for Houston artists to get their work seen and they should take advantage of it," Zimmermann says. "There are no restrictions, you don't need to be a certain age and it's free to apply."

    Last year Artadia received a record number of applications and hopes to encourage more Houston artists to apply this year.

    "The presence of so many great artists, non-profits and cultural institutions make Houston one of the most vibrant cities in the country," says Kanner. "We are deeply honored to have worked in this community since 2003."

    The Artadia selection process includes a 45-minute studio visit for the 15 finalists. Two awards of $15,000 and five of $3,000 will be distributed to Houston artists. Past awardees include such notable Houston artists as Floyd E. Newsum Jr., Amy Blakemore, The Art Guys, Francesca Fuchs (winner of the 2006 Hunting Art Price), Trenton Doyle Hancock, and Robyn O'Neil (winner of the 2009 Hunting Art Prize). The complete list of Houston awardees is here.

    Support for Artadia in Houston is provided by the Houston Endowment and several individuals. The session is free and open to the public.

    Pop star Benson Boone will perform at Dickies Arena on September 20.

    Rising pop star Benson Boone will capitalize on his breakout year in 2024 with the upcoming American Heart arena tour, which will include a stop at the Toyota Center in Houston on Thursday, September 18.

    Fresh off his debut performance on Saturday Night Live, Boone will embark on a huge 30-city North American tour, kicking off in St. Paul, Minnesota on August 22.

    In addition to Houston, Boone will also perform in Austin on September 19 and Fort Worth on September 20.

    The tour will be in support of his sophomore album, American Heart, scheduled for released on June 20.

    That album is a quick turnaround from his 2024 debut album, Fireworks & Rollerblades, which went platinum and rose to as high as No. 6 on the Billboard 200.

    Boone garnered a big number of award nominations and wins in 2024 and 2025, including a nomination for Best New Artist at the 2025 Grammy Awards, at which he showed off his now-signature flip while singing his hit song, "Beautiful Things."

    Ticket sales for the tour will start with an Amex Presale for American Express Card Members on Wednesday, May 7 at 10 am local time

    A special fan presale takes place on Thursday, May 8 from 2-10pm on Ticketmaster.com with unlock code: BEAUTIFUL. The public on-sale begins Friday, May 9 at 10 am.
