Art Quest 2024

COMMUNITY ART ENGAGEMENT

In July 2024, AURORA presents the third edition of Art Quest, the annual community program in Dallas that uses the mobility of technology to create accessible cultural experiences. With this program, AURORA aims to inspire a journey across the digital divide to raise awareness about the unequal access to technology and the arts.

The program is set to take place on July 13, 20 and 31, 2024 in Pleasant Grove, South Dallas, and Bachman.

For this year's edition, AURORA commissioned three artworks, which will be given to Art Quest winners.

CoMMISSIONED Artists:

Tina Medina
Jessica Bell
MOM (Brooke Chaney)

Neighborhood Schedule:

Saturday, July 13, 2024 in Pleasant Grove with an artwork by Tina Medina
Saturday, July 20, 2024 in South Dallas with an artwork by Jessica Bell
Wednesday, July 31, 2024 in Bachman with an artwork by MOM (Brooke Chaney)

In each of the three areas, AURORA will host a community gathering event in partnership with Los Primos Dallas, Jubilee Park Community Center, Fair Park First, and Bachman Lake Together, starting at 5 pm. Participants are invited to opening events within the three neighborhoods to network and learn more about key community organizations, businesses, and public spaces prior to the start of their quest. The end of each quest will be celebrated with a closing event, where participants will get a chance to meet the creator of the artwork.

In addition to three works of art, AURORA is also giving away two BenQ projectors and 500 free tickets to Meow Wolf in Grapevine, Texas.

All Art Quest programming is free and open to the public. Sign up for our newsletter and follow us on Instagram, Facebook, and Twitter to learn more about Art Quest and AURORA.
