Five Points Museum will be open regular hours through August 3rd. While we prepare two of the galleries for Food for Thought and the Victoria Show, we are keeping our front showroom gallery open with a selection of art cars featuring animals as inspiration. Always Free, Wednesday-Sunday 12-5pm.
Since we opened the submission form for The Victoria Show, we have had several questions. Ranging from video submissions to size limitations to offering art for sale, we’re answering them here.
How do you define Victoria? What is the personality of the city? How do you describe Victoria to someone who has never been here? What cultural, political, or spiritual elements are at the core of your community? As the city grows and diversifies, how is the identity of Victoria evolving? This exhibit will focus on work that addresses these questions and how they apply to the people, traditions and environment in and around the Crossroads area.
Five Points Museum is currently recruiting for multiple positions for museum assistants. Check out the details here.
Ann Harithas and Five Points Museum of Contemporary Art present the 2018 Victoria Art Car Parade at 11:30am downtown on Main Street.
Festivities will kick off with Victoria’s 7th annual Art Car Parade downtown. After the parade some art cars will park so Jam Fest visitors can take a closer look. The rest of the parade cars will proceed to Five Points Museum at Moody and North Street for the museum exhibition opening, The Hot Rod Review. Curated by Noah Edmundson for the Art Car Museum in Houston, this exhibit features custom hot rods, rat rods, motorcycles and other build-from-scratch rolling sculpture, including additions to the original show especially for Victoria. This show will also include work by photographers Owen Fisher and Keith Testa, sculpture by Renee Tantillo, and art car concepts by Victoria ISD students with the Manhattan Art Program.
