Our Mission
Project Row Houses was founded in 1993 as a result of discussions among African-American artists who wanted to establish a positive, creative presence in their own Third Ward community. Our work is founded on the principle that art and the community that creates it can revitalize even the most depressed of inner-city neighborhoods, for the mutual good of existing and future residents changes lives. Thus, the mission of Project Row Houses is to transform community through the celebration of art and African-American history and culture.
