Houston Inside Out explores “place” in Houston from the ground level perspective of artists, journalists, historians and writers who share their thoughts about the ways and especially “the wheres” through which the city is known to its residents. Symposium participants will focus their presentations on distinctive communities, neighborhoods, gathering places and unique locales in the city and surrounds.
Nationally-noted novelist Rosellen Brown and food writer extraordinaire Robb Walsh will be the featured speakers.
Writing & C/Siting Houston participants Bao-Long Chu, Roger Wood and Gwendolyn Zepeda will use the symposium as an “inside out” opportunity to reflect on their personal notion of place in the Bayou City.
Writing and C/Siting Houston is a collaborative project of the University of Houston Downtown Cultural Enrichment Center, the University of Houston Folklore Archive and the Houston Arts Alliance Folklife and Traditional Arts Program in cooperation with the Houston Public Library. Writing and C/Siting Houston is made possible in part with support from Humanities Texas and the Houston Arts Alliance.
