Truly an Arts Collective led by the artists, HopeArts works to promote a rich artistic atmosphere and deep artistic experience for the artists within our collective, in our immediate Brentwood/Crestview/Allendale neighborhood(s), and in our wider Austin Arts community.

Open to any medium, genre, arts educational backgrounds, and professional experience, we support artists through a vibrant Arts Program including gallery shows and art openings, performance events, an in-house art magazine, and an open/shared-use, fully stocked arts studio.

Welcoming of artists from pre-teen ages to busy parent with no bandwidth, to professional artists with no life-space, and to retirees/seniors deep-diving their passions and interests, our collective embraces an ethos and attitude of supportive communalism in artistic creativity, finding no artistic voice to be without worth or insightfulness.

All Art aims at the highest, deepest, widest breadth of who Humanity is and is meant to be, and all that is good, beautiful, and true in Faith and of Life, and it is only together with other artists (from across the community and differing backgrounds) can an individual artist find the enrichment and support to achieve such a  mark, and that is what HopeArts seeks to foster.

  2. “Pilgrimage of Light” Artist Reception

    Join us Saturday, February 4th in the Hope Chapel Sanctuary Gallery for an artist’s reception of Pilgrimage of Light, a photography exhibit by Wendy Dooldeniya. There will be a catered reception and artist talk starting at 6:30pm, followed by an interactive Q & A. We will also have musical accompaniment by guitarist Nathan Howard.

    Wendy describes her work in this way: “These images are moments of my soul hearing the voices of water, wind, light, and shadow. They are the moments that give me pause and peace in the wanderings of daily life.”

  3. Taizé Service Announcement

    Occurring every 3rd Sunday of the month (except for holidays), beginning at 7:00 P.M. theTaizé Service is a contemplative, liturgical service following the lectionary calendar. Numerous moments of silence, liturgy, and lectio divina readings are built into an aestheticaly oriented prayer service. Taizé Services closely follow the French Taizé Community model, a community which began in 1940, and currently boast a community of 100 Catholic and various Protestants who live their lives together as, “a sign of reconciliation between divided Christians and between separated peoples.”
