Houston Arts Alliance (HAA) is the city’s designated, local arts and culture agency. We invest in Houston as a place to visit, live, work, honor, and create. We do this by:
- providing grants to arts, culture, and community organizations and individual artists;
- commissioning, conserving and promoting public art and enlivening public spaces;
highlighting and celebrating the region’s rich folklife and diverse cultural traditions through programming and documentation;
- helping arts and culture organizations develop business acumen;
- engaging neighborhoods and civic partners to advance equity in and access to arts and culture;
- furthering the arts and culture field through research and convenings;
- funding, in part, cultural tourism initiatives; and
- endeavoring to expand the overall creative economy. 

Ultimately, HAA works to improve the quality of life for Houstonians and visitors alike, while promoting Houston as a premier arts and culture destination.

HAA is a nonprofit, public-private initiative whose primary partner is the City of Houston. Approximately 55% of HAA’s budget comes from Hotel Occupancy Tax and 30% from the City of Houston’s Percent for Art Program, which supports commissions of new civic art projects as well as conservation of existing artworks. The remaining 15% of HAA’s budget comes from private fundraising (grants/contributions/other revenue) for programs and special projects. HAA is committed to raising funds for only those projects and initiatives that the Arts Alliance is uniquely positioned to provide the community.
