Stewpot Art Program Details
The Stewpot Art Program serves people experiencing homelessness or at risk of homelessness in Dallas, providing a safe environment and outlet to express themselves through art.
Artists have access to The Stewpot’s studio space and art supplies, allowing them to create art on their own time throughout the year, and the program also provides an opportunity to connect with others who share the same passion.
There are currently 20 artists participating in the Stewpot Art Program.
Artists receive 90% of the proceeds from the sale of their art, with 10% of proceeds going to art programs for artist supplies and site visits.
Sheraton Dallas’ art gallery exhibits will continue to be on display at The Parlour and Open Market Grab & Go, allowing hotel guests and locals who stop by after Art Night at The Parlour to view and purchase artworks.
