Walls of a More Perfect Union
Fundraising Event Benefitting Street Art for Mankind
An Evening Celebrating America's 250th Birthday Through Art, Community & Purpose
This Fourth of July, Liberty & Lux launched something bigger than a single night. Atop The Branch at Forme, with Houston's skyline and Independence Day fireworks as the backdrop, guests raised a glass to freedom and kicked off fundraising for a transformative public art initiative benefiting Street Art for Mankind.
That work continues, and there's still time to be part of it.
The Mural
Situated at the intersection of art, history, and community, Forme is transforming both walls of its parking structure into a sweeping public mural that will become a permanent landmark in Houston's Museum District.
Commissioned through Street Art for Mankind, the mural is conceived as a modern visual epic, drawing inspiration from the monumental storytelling of Diego Rivera and the spiritual symbolism and African-rooted iconography of Houston artist John Biggers.
The subject is both timely and timeless: America's 250th Birthday, a story told honestly, beautifully, and through a perspective that has too rarely held the brush. The artwork celebrates the diverse voices, struggles, triumphs, and aspirations that continue to shape the American experience.
Fundraising Is Ongoing
Every contribution goes directly toward the mural's creation and Street Art for Mankind's community art programs. Donors can still add their names to the commemorative rendering of the mural replica, which will reside permanently at Forme.
