DiverseWorks is a nationally-recognized contemporary arts center, showcasing cutting-edge performing, visual, and literary arts works, with a focus on works centered on topics that typically have no other cultural outlet within the Houston area. The organization was founded in 1982 to raise community awareness for the arts and serves as a forum for artists to engage the public with new ideas. The center is open to the public Thursdays, Fridays, and Saturdays during the afternoon and evening hours, with free rotating gallery exhibitions showcasing the visual and multimedia artworks of emerging and mid-career artists. Public special event programming is also showcased regularly, with some performances and events open to the public for free admission.
