Dignify the Displaced - An Art Auction
We are so happy to invite you to the third annual Dignify the Displaced Art Auction, hosted by our friends at Rice University in the brand-new William T. Cannady Hall.
There will be amazing art for sale. Free food and drinks. Live Music. A ton of fun in support of Every Shelter’s mission.
We could not be more excited to host this event with Rice, where Every Shelter was first born.
Year after year, artists from across Houston, Texas, and the world have come together to offer their beautiful work for auction in support of our mission. And you, our Every Shelter friends, have come out in force to make this night a blast. Last year, we sold over 85% of the art. Let’s do it again. We will be publishing the art catalog soon!
Frequently asked questions
Over 100 million people are displaced. The average duration of displacement is over 20 years long. We design shelter solutions for refugees and displaced families so they can create a home for that duration.
In short, Every Shelter is using the proceeds to help build and support our refugee-centric ecosystem in Uganda – Shelter WorkShop | Shelter Depot | Shelter Goods – a refugee relief model led by refugees at every level.
