Join us for an art-filled evening, as Contemporary Arts Museum Houston (CAMH) partners with Mid Main for an unforgettable First Thursday block party. This is the last chance to see Threat of Joy, a collaborative exhibition of student and teacher artwork showcasing joy and rebellion organized by Contemporary Arts Museum Houston (CAMH)’s fourth cohort of the Teacher Advisory Group (TAG). The thought-provoking work in the exhibition is made both to fight oppression, as a reminder to create in spite of a lack of motivation, and to choose joy when the pressures of the world can feel heavy and overwhelming.

Since 2012, First Thursdays have grown into a beloved tradition in the 3600 block of Main Street, known for philanthropy and community building while supporting non-profits each month. The event will include live music and performances, complimentary beverages (21+ with a wristband purchased with proceeds benefiting CAMH’s Education Fund and Teacher Advisory Group), and the opportunity to connect with art enthusiasts and support local businesses.
