New Exhibitions Opening @ Lawndale Art Center
4912 Main
Houston, TX
6pm-8:30pm
713-528-5858
askus@lawndaleartcenter.org

This place just exudes and encourages art in so many forms (not to mention reminds me of my home of San Francisco), and they're showcasing tons of it starting this Friday!! Artist talks begin @ 6pm. FREE

Of course there's more, but I'm just not feelin' them as much....see you in the streets

Naima ;)

Naima here: ok so you've probably figured out we've changed our name to Houston Revealed. It still feels a bit restrictive, but it'll do for now.

There's tons going on this week, but this is what we actually care about:

Wednesday, April 29th

These women are hosting an event at Franklin Lofts, super cool site, and the women behind it make things happen in this town. FREE

Pink Door Non-Profit is having an event @ Salud Winery. I like the founders and what they're doing. FREE

The uber Italian designer Valentino has been put into film by Filmmaker Matt Tyrnauer, and a behind-the-scenes conversation with him and Houston Princess (and billionaire) Lynn Wyatt is taking place at the Museum's Brown Auditorium Theater. FREE

Thursday, April 30th

Galleria Chamber Afterhours Mixer @ Post Oak Grill 5:30-7:30, FREE
Martin Lawrence Comedy Auditions and Show, 113331 Kuykendahl, 8pm, tickets: $15

Friday, May 1st

These chicks got it goin' on, and I'm impressed. Meet them at DUO 6pm-8pm and check out their site for a 25% shopping discount. FREE

Of course there's more, but I'm not sure if I actually care to write about it. Until next time.....the meek shall inherit the passenger seat... ;)

We're changing our name........

There's a site in Houston called Dish-Houston and we knew that, but thought it wouldn't be that big a deal. Turns out, it's just too close for comfort. Dig Houston and Dish Houston? No. So instead of Dig Houston, which we really do like, we're renaming ourselves. But here's the wall...we haven't decided yet, so stay tuned. Later....

The Beginning of this Beautiful Mess

ok, so the intention here is to be a source in decision-making for experiencing what Houston has to offer. When we say 'offer' we mean in terms of where to eat, shop, hang out, book a party, go to a kick-ass party, get a manicure, bring a visiting friend, and so on. You get it right?



From time to time we'll feature super short videos, but most of the time there'll probably be short insight into what we've discovered and what you should consider before exerting your slim time and hawk-protected money. Sorta like yelp, but much more personal and honest, and as diplomatic as our mood allows :P
