DiverseWorks and Zine Fest Houston present Hallow-Zine! Join artists Maria-Elisa Heg, Anastasia Kirages, and Sarah Welch for a Halloween-themed zine-making workshop in the DiverseWorks gallery at the MATCH. This workshop will focus on DIY publishing techniques and the use of collage in zines, and will feature a variety of hands-on exercises. Optional materials to bring with you include any personal writing or artwork, magazines, newspaper articles, photography, etc. Refreshments and basic supplies such as paper, pens, scissors, and glue sticks will be provided. FREE, but space is limited. RSVP and reserve your spot by emailing [email protected]. Sponsored by Topo Chico USA and Saint Arnold Brewing Company. Zine Fest Houston is a local volunteer-based organization and annual one day festival dedicated to promoting zines, mini-comics, and other forms of small press, alternative, underground DIY media and art. With 72 vendors and over 1,000 attendees in 2015, the fest continues to grow apace. Since 2013 fest organizers have been diligent in seeking out, collaborating on, and creating fresh year-round programming in the form of workshops with organizations such as Art League Houston, The Houston Center for Photography, and Writespace Houston, pop-up tabling events, and unique zine and creator driven events like Comix Gauntlet, and the annual ZFH compilation release. 2016 Zine Fest is on November 19 at Lawndale Art Center.  For more information visit https://zinefesthouson.org/

DiverseWorks relocated to Midtown in 2012, near the Museum District. Although not as striking as the Station Museum of Contemporary Art, it continues to show thought-provoking work.

"This is a favorite of mine and a particularly quirky acquisition by the Museum. It is a provocative work that engages the public, by a highly innovative artist from Puerto Rico, adding to the diverse mix of artists represented in our collection.”

“I have been an admirer of Nina’s work for more than a dozen years, always intrigued by her infinite creativity and her ability to actively engage viewers in her works. In a Room Full of Strangers, which was one of the stars of the Museum’s exhibition, #CrossingBrooklyn, epitomizes the artist’s talent for including the visitor.”
