THE ORANGE SHOW CENTER FOR VISIONARY ART

As one of the world’s most international cities, Houston draws strength from the diversity of its people and cultures.

The Orange Show Center for Visionary Art has helped shape the cultural history that gives Houston its distinctive identity.

The Art Car Parade, one of the city’s signature cultural celebrations, draws hundreds of thousands of spectators each year and highlights the creativity, diversity, and community spirit that define Houston.


The Consular Corps of Houston's participation affirms its commitment to the city while honoring the many nations and cultures that shape Houston’s global identity. Through this vibrant public event, members can advance cultural diplomacy by building goodwill, strengthening international friendships, and connecting with the community beyond formal diplomatic settings.
