Form 990, Part III, Line 4a, Narrative of program service accomplishments	Founded by artists in 1982, DiverseWorks has been a recognized national leader for its groundbreaking programming; as a resource for the innovative and meaningful engagement of communities; as a commissioner of contemporary works in multiple media; and as a force that has shaped contemporary thought and practice in Houston and the nation. DiverseWorks is a leader in the nationwide movement of artist-centered organizations and is a vital presence in national organizations such as the National Performance Network, Common Field, and the Association of Art Museum Curators. DiverseWorks serves as a forum for issues and works that have no other public outlet in Houston, and plays a similar role nationally. DiverseWorks provides first-time commissioning opportunities for emerging artists, continued support for innovative mid-career artists, and acts as a launching pad for young artists and arts organizations. DiverseWorks supports artists and projects that inspire dialogue about contemporary culture among artists, audiences, and the greater community. DiverseWorks is a local and national source for high quality experiential and progressive works of art that compel viewers to broaden their perceptions of what art is and how art can be a critical tool for addressing social, cultural, and aesthetic concerns. Major programs in 2016-17 Pablo Helguera: The Fable is to be Retold, September 17 - November 19, 2016 This exhibition included collage, sculpture, video, audio, and performative installation work that examined fables as forms of visual and linguistic communication and understanding in school and museum settings. The large-scale conceptual sculpture, "Pedro & The Wolf Captain," was an optical illusion room that served as a stage for a play to be performed by the artist and his local actor, and audience members. The artist worked with the African-American Museum and Library at the Gregory School to develop a local context for the presentation of Museo de la vida escolar. In addition, Helguera presented a new performance, "The Fable of the Ancient Children and Other Stories," on September 17, 2016, that included readings of poems and essays by Helguera and original performances by Houston dancers and musicians. Tiny Art Salon, September 29 - October 2, 2016 The Tiny Art Salon was a series of talks and live performances by Houston-area artists at the 2016 Texas Contemporary Art Fair. Tiny Art Salon provided an alternative to the standard art fair booth by providing a platform for artists to present short talks, host conversations, and perform unique works over the course of the four-day fair. 12 Minutes Max!, November 4 & 5, 2016 Two evenings of experimental performance by Houston-area artists, dancers, and musicians was presented in collaboration with the DiverseWorks Artist Advisory Board. Meg Wolfe, New Faithful Disco, November 11 & 12, 2016 Co-commissioned by DiverseWorks, REDCAT, Portland Institute for Contemporary Art, Z Space, and the National Performance Network, Los Angeles-based choreographer Meg Wolfe's New Faithful Disco featured a trio of dancers-taisha paggett, Marbles Jumbo Radio, and Wolfe- in a performance that was wrought with awkwardness and contradictions. The piece built upon the communal energy of the three dancers whose LGBTQ identities and roles shifted throughout the performance. Kate Gilmore & Heather Rowe: Only in Your Way, January 21 - March 18, 2017 This collaborative exhibition by Kate Gilmore and Heather Rowe included commissioned site-specific sculpture and live durational performances. Questions concerning definitions of labor, acts of looking and seeing, and how framing devices shape our contemporary world were explored. Live performances by local women of diverse backgrounds, including artists, dancers, workers and students, took place within the installation. The project converted the gallery into a complex architectural space to be carefully navigated, with sculpture, performers and audience acting in tandem as the conceptual material for the work. Wura-Natasha Ogunji's House of Wahala, April 27 - 28, 2017 House of Wahala - meaning trouble in Nigerian pidgin - flipped the script on the traditional art auction. Wura-Natasha Ogunji performed as the auctioneer for artwork by artists she selected, the majority of whom were artists of color without gallery representation. All works came from the primary market (that is directly from artists) to the buyer. The event featured a sound work by Emeka Ogboh and the auction itself was interrupted by performances by Lisa E. Harris and Gabrielle Civil. into the midst of things: Regina Agu, Wura-Natasha Ogunji, and Ruby Onyinyechi Amanze, May 13 - July 22, 2017 This exhibition brought together drawing, video, photography, and sculpture by three artists-Regina Agu, ruby onyinyechi amanze, and Wura-Natasha Ogunji-invested in mark making to offer counterpoints to dominant cultural and historical narratives. The project included a series of participatory workshops and discussions that explored how the creative process can be a form of personal expression and healing led by performance artists Celestina Billington and Brittani Broussard; DAMN GXRL; and filmmakers and writers Morganne Nikole and Bria Lauren (htxpeopleproject). On the closing evening artists Regina Agu, Peter Lucas, and Adrienne Perry presented a live, de-centered collage of words, images, films, sound, and music. Other public programs included an exhibition tour, artist talks and community meeting for the Nigerian American Multicultural Council.
