Countercrawl 2

Countercrawl is a mobile art, music, and experiential event taking place every few months that showcases a new region of Houston each time. Countercrawl's goal is to provide a venue for artistic and critical experiments difficult to exhibit in a traditional gallery setting. Most of the people will ride bikes between all the locations, but cars are definitely welcome. The concept of Countercrawl is that local, up and coming artists of means within this vibrant community are able to meet and have a dialogue with their peers in an effort to organically grow into a community of self-sustaining artists. By supporting Countercrawl, you are to setting the stage to allow more artists in the future exposure at subsequent Countercrawls.
