About the Event

Enjoy an evening journey through this multi-site, outdoor presentation of food, dance, music, spoken word, and art installations. Organized in conjunction with the exhibition, Urban Impressions: Experiencing the Global Contemporary Metropolis, this free and open event celebrates urban life as experienced through the visual, performing, and culinary arts.

Headlined by Houston’s own Lil’ Flip, featuring a food truck rally, complimentary beer tasting of Japa, an art beer by Nigerian artist Emeka Ogboh, a video installation by Sindhu Thirumalaisamy, and site-specific performances by the Texas Poet Laureate Lupe Mendez, jazz musician Jalen Baker, and hip hop collective Breakfree Worldwide, this event spotlights the diversity, inclusiveness, and international creative exchange that defines Houston.

Event schedule available on the Moody’s Website.
