It all started when…

“HERE TODAY, GONE TOMORROW” is an artist-run collaborative visual journey that speculates the cycle of beauty, destruction, and rebirth. This interactive art exhibit features 35+ creative visionaries of diverse disciplines.

The project consists of eight (8) various size rooms that are divided into two (2) separate units of the duplex with exterior facade and yard. Each room will be curated and transformed by different creative groups and individual artists. Selected artists will given no creative limitations and are encouraged to use a variety of mediums to create an immersive art space. Whether they paint, build, construct, destruct or all of the above is up to them. There will be event programming throughout the duration of the project

The entire duplex will be demolished at the end of 2022 with plans of a new housing project which will include a public mural, sculptural installation and one unit dedicated to affordable housing for the Blackland neighborhood.

The project is designed to celebrate creative freedom of Austin artists while raising awareness of the Blackland organization and neighborhood.
